Album Notes & Community Reviews

A 10-inch EP released between his acclaimed 'New History Warfare' volumes, featuring a single, continuous piece of music. 'Those Who Didn't Run' is a testament to Stetson's singular technique, using just a bass saxophone and his unique circular breathing method to build a powerful, monolithic soundscape. The piece evolves from a tense, rhythmic pulse into a massive wall of sound, all recorded live with no overdubs, highlighting the sheer physicality of his performance.
