Interview:
This 18 March 2007 interview
with Bill
Brovold explores the fluid nature of the group's
definition over time and the protean nature of its
organic sound. This interview just followed release of
the 2-CD set Surviving Death / Alive Why? (Cuneiform
Rune 248 / 249). The creative principal behind the
walls-of-sound approach is guitarist, composer,
producer, and visual artist Bill Brovold. Larval’s fifth
release is a studio recording, Surviving Death, and a
live CD, Alive Why?. Disc 1: Surviving Death is
Larval’s newest studio
recording, is one of the most diverse Larval CD to date.
Disc 2: Alive Why?, documents
Larval’s legendary live
show. |

Concert House; and concerts in 1999 and 2001 at
Cleveland, Ohio’s Beachland Ballroom. It features
performances by
Brovold, Gregg Courtney, and Toby Summerfield on
guitar; Thor Brovold, James Ilgenfritz III, and Alfred
Turner on bass; Gus Brovold, Luke Mcauley, and Jason
