Album Notes & Community Reviews

Pairing two heavyweights of the Japanese underground, this live collaboration is an uncompromising exercise in suffocating volume and tectonic pacing. The improvisational set layers agonizing slabs of low-end distortion beneath erratic bursts of shrieking feedback and percussion. The performance solidifies the intersection of avant-garde noise and doom metal aesthetics.
