Album Notes & Community Reviews

Formed as an experimental outlet by Aaron Turner of Isis and drummer Santos Montano, this debut release establishes a massive, feedback-laden approach to extreme music. The compositions weave between crushing, down-tuned sludge riffs and extended passages of eerie, textural ambient noise. 'Meditations in B' serves as the foundational blueprint for the group's unpredictable, heavy aesthetic.
