Album Notes & Community Reviews

Pairing two legendary figures of the American experimental underground, this subdued live set finds them engaging in an achingly slow dialogue of electric guitar improvisation. Eschewing aggressive volume for fragile, decaying tones, the duo explores vast stretches of ambient stillness and haunting dissonance. It is a stunning example of microscopic, textural guitar interplay.
