Album Notes & Community Reviews
Formed by Stuart Dahlquist after his departure from Sunn O))), the ensemble's debut acts as a colossal exploration of amplified sustain. Utilizing organ, slow-moving percussion, and mammoth guitar feedback, the tracks function as monolithic walls of mechanical drone that continuously test the boundaries of heavy minimalism.
