RELEASE DATE

Bremen
return with
Eclipsed
, a double LP of glacial electronics, strung-out drone-punk, and smoldering space-rock minimalism. Following the release of their self-titled debut on Skrammel in 2013, the Swedish duo of
Jonas Tiljander
(
Brainbombs
) and
Lanchy Orre
(Brainbombs,
Totalitär
) joined the Blackest Ever Black fold in 2014 with
Second Launch
(BLACKEST 033LP). If the mood of that record was brooding and stygian, its monochord intensity unfaltering, then
Eclipsed
, this equally sprawling set, could be construed as a warmer, more dynamic, and variegated offering. Perhaps. There are still passages that are heavier than a death in the family. Still a staunch obsession with the consciousness-altering power of repetition. The band's points of departure are specific: a particular organ sound from
J. A. Seazer
's 1970s recordings, the squalid alien guitar tone of
Chrome
, the cranked psychic roar-out riffage of
Hawkwind
, the melancholic mode of Swedish jazz pianist
Jan Johansson
, minimalism from
La Monte Young
to
Eleh
, "cold '80s electronic sound," and sloppy, lo-fi psychedelic rock from the likes of
Pärson Sound
and
Träd, Gräs och Stenar
. Tiljander's icily poised synth and organ drones and the grieving cosmic howl of Orre's guitar dominate the landscape, but their instrumental palette has also expanded to include various percussion treatments, saxophone, strings, and dissolved vocal fragments. Their exploratory jamming, overdubbing, and dub-savvy mixing yields a music of unbelievable eloquence and physicality.
Eclipsed
is another masterpiece of black hole psychedelia from one of the greatest underground rock 'n' roll units on the planet. No serious void-worshipper's collection is right without it. All songs by Orre/Tiljander. Mastered by
Tomas Bodén
. Cut by
Noel Summerville
. Pressed at Optimal. Housed in gatefold sleeve. Includes MP3/FLAC download code.
