lemur is the duality between the abstract humanistic and the guttoral animalistic mind - lemur is pure emotional expression straight from the core - lemur is the penumbra; the grey area between the light and the dark - lemur is an experiment in neo-tribalism, archaism, and modern savagery - lemur is about uninhibited artisitic expression through all known senses - lemur is a way of thought inspired by Buddhist/Taoist insight and Pagan/Native beliefs, as well as the writings of naturalistic and extistential philosophers - lemur is about community, sanctuary, brotherhood, and freedom of expression and speech - lemur is the acceptance of all in the pursuit of creation, growth, and understanding.
Band/artist history
lemur has been around, in one form or another, since 1997 (at which time it went by the tenative name of Pantheon). Brian Hart is the central figure of this creative maelstrom, often collaborating with other artists to create in the name of lemur. May 5th, 2002, marked the release of lemur's first album 'notharctus,' under their own independant label, RingTail Records. Brian worked with Mitchell Breton on this lemur first. The album has been distributed across the US, and to a lesser extend, internationally. Since that time Brian Hart has been creating solo, occassionally working with a number of other musician's on a variety of side projects. Though his time is consumed mostly with his webcomic Disassemblance, Brian has continuously worked on the exploration that is lemur; publishing solely through the website.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
Touring and live performances are not lemur's artistic priority. Performances are done only on special occassion and done when circumstances allow for a truly tribal/community based experience.
Your musical influences
lemur takes great philosophical and artistic inspiration from Nine Inch Nails, Henry Rollins, TooL, SoulFly, Depeche Mode, Botch, Zao, Bjorck and Rage Against the Machine.
What equipment do you use?
My computer, with a few selective software packages. Most sounds used in my creations are actually produced by my very own vocal chords (if not heavily distorted).
