About Efrim Manuel Menuck
Efrim Manuel Menuck has spent decades at the centre of Montreal's Constellation Records orbit, first as a founding member of Godspeed You! Black Emperor, whose long instrumental pieces built from quiet to enormous, and then as the singer of Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra, where his voice moved to the front.
Under his own name he released Plays "High Gospel" in 2011 and Pissing Stars in 2018, both on Constellation. The solo records are smaller and rougher than either band: looped and processed guitar, synthesisers, heavy reverb on the vocals, and lyrics that carry the same political anger and grief found in his group work.
