ProjectPulp.com Review      Until Death Do Impart, an audio chapbook of poetry by William P. Robertson, is not just a collection of verse. It is a conglomeration of sound -- including read-aloud poetry, mood-evoking sound effects, rock music, and vocal drama. All these things draw the listener into Robertson's rather strange and macabre world.      Twenty-four of Robertson's poems, combined with five songs from the rock band ShadowFox, bring us a world full of dark imagery and wry humor. Many of the poems, including "After Our Chihuahua Disappeared" and "Mad Scientist Bingo," have an almost punch line effect, beginning with bizarre, eerie, or grotesque imagery and ending with a line that turns the listener's expectations upside down.      The collection is aptly titled, as death is the unifying theme to almost all the pieces on the CD. However, each poem treats death differently. The listener is plunged into the worlds of an executioner, a soldier, a serial killer, a bride, and many others, all of whom are anything but typical and faced with death in some form.      The worlds within each of the poems are enhanced by background music and effects engineered by Robertson's sound effects people, the Crypt Kicker Five. The extensive sound effects include simulating an alien battle for the poem "Giff's 'Uh!'," the sounds of a night-time train in "For Story Rights," and macabre wedding music for "No One Wondered." The effects are coupled with an occasional dramatic reading, as in the poem "I Am," where the reader becomes, not a narrator, but a (very strange) character.      The entire CD comes together to bring the listener, not an audio chapbook, but a complete Experience. Until Death Do Impart is a well-written, well-orchestrated collection a must buy for anyone looking for something out of the ordinary.                 ::Sarah Guidry::      Have you read this title?
