Album Notes & Community Reviews
Recorded at a Houston festival in 1996, this sprawling, single-track performance perfectly illustrates AMM's commitment to microscopic, reductionist improvisation. John Tilbury and Eddie Pr茅vost generate vast, glacial drone architectures from bowed cymbals and scraped percussion, establishing an overwhelmingly tense and deeply introspective atmosphere.
