Album Notes & Community Reviews

Originally composed for a series of choreographic performances by the Iceland Dance Company, the post-rock ensemble explores bleak, foreboding textures on this release. The project heavily favors overwhelming, distorted drone and avant-garde sound manipulation over the band's traditional soaring crescendos.
