Modern Jester by Aaron Dilloway

Originally released as a Double LP in Gatefold Sleeve.

"…in terms of scope and ambition, Modern Jester is Dilloway's War and Peace. It covers practically all of his sonic obsessions, stretching them to lengths at which he can explore every detail and tangent." Marc Masters, Pitchfork.com

"There is a specific production approach to this record that works perfectly on pulling the listener in it. It has the power to transfer and guide the mind through a journey."--- Jackie Farrow, Sonic Escape

"Those that leave the green lungs you, raise the temperature to improbable degrees and hallucinate your death." Bartolome Delmar Huerta, Afterpop (Babel Fish Translation from Spanish)

"Modern Jester" is quite possibly the culmination of everything we've heard from Dilloway that's come before it. A hyper-focused monolithic double LP that distills all past phases of inspiration into a harrowing, but strangely beautiful journey."
-- Fred Thomas, All Music Guide

"From short bursts to long-form, hallucinatory epics, it's a sprawling collection that highlights every facet of Dilloway's considerable arsenal. One of the album's two side-long attacks, Look Over Your Shoulder is a lurid, subtly shifting piece with disembodied vocals and a barrage of extra-terrestrial tones that slithers into your cerebral cortex atop a funeral rhythm."
