   About The 47th Star
Out of the wreckage of Spiderworks Christopher Vigil stumbled. Dazed and raging, he roamed the streets in a fog - shaking his fist at the Universe and mumbling obsenities at memories, ghosts, and delusions. He moved to Los Angeles, earning a living by rebuilding homes damaged by the Northridge earthquake. He moved to Leadville, Colorado to build ski resorts which he could not afford to visit. He moved to Albuquerque to study Buddhism, earning a living by building cabinets and furniture. He attended the University of New Mexico, taking a graduate degree in American History by writing a thesis on the relationship between water use and political power in New Mexico. He now teaches at a private prepatory school in Albuquerque, where he has established a small studio/laboratory for doing what he is compelled to do - obsessively, compusively make noise. The result is The 47th Star, an open, multi-media, music collective. If you are interested in joining The 47th Star for a collaboration, please feel free to make contact.

I don't think of it as 'noise' if it gives you positive sensations. Noise was most of Cage's work. Soundscapes and textures are 47th Star.

Hey The 47th Star , what's up!
Thanks for your friendship and support. It really means a lot to us! Our new album "The Atrocity Exhibition: Exhibit A" is out and should be in stores, at least that's what our record company told us. ha,ha. If you can't find it at your local stores, please ask them to order it.
You can listen to some of the songs from the new album on our MySpace page. We hope you check it out! Buy it, download it, steal it ... just tell all your friends, send out a bulletin or a message to them and help us spread the word about our new album around the world.
Hope to see you on tour.

Happy New Year!

EXODUS
