reflecting the sounds and emotions of consecrated spaces, misty mountaintop overlooks, and automated factories, the collective embodies and explores the relationship between machine and earth, of steel and flesh and of love and silicon.
it’s hard to pinpoint the group’s sound, from dense and claustrophobic ambience to crushing and overwhelming crescendos, echoing and echoing on into the cold, brittle night. songs eb-and-flow like rivers and like wires, weaving and darting from place to place and never settling.
guitars are thrown away in favour of analogue synthesisers. the human voice is a distant memory in these desperate soundscapes.
our humanity is what separates us from the machines that desperately desire to imitate us, to change us, to replace us.
