Nine

Album Notes & Community Reviews

Arriving as the Chicago trio's ninth full-length studio effort, this record fortifies their dominion over the instrumental post-metal landscape. Engineered and mixed by Kurt Ballou across sessions at Electrical Audio and GodCity Studio, the album balances sprawling, cinematic build-ups with crushing, atmospheric sludge metal aggression. The compositions highlight a revitalized sense of purpose, integrating subtle electronic textures and intricate acoustic passages into their signature walls of dense, relentless distortion.
