Album Notes & Community Reviews

Collaborating with a Welsh theatre company, the pioneering industrial collective stages a massive, site-specific sonic assault in an abandoned sand quarry. Utilizing thundering metallic percussion and ancient Celtic poetry, 'Gododdin' serves as a brutal, visceral lament for an ancient slaughtered army.
