Album Notes & Community Reviews

Led by the son of free jazz legend Peter Br枚tzmann, this German power trio unleashes a terrifying storm of feedback-drenched guitar improvisation. 'Black Axis' is an incredibly dense, punishing noise rock record that relies on massive, tribal drum patterns and screeching, atonal guitar textures. It is a foundational work of avant-garde extremity that deeply influenced the impending post-metal genre.
