REPOSE 051LP
|
Since 2006, Khünnt have fervently explored the boundaries of esoteric music, from minimalist noise, cack-rock and ESP screams to live improvisation, fog-beat and psychedelic city mantra. Khünnt is: John-Michael Hedley - Bass Guitar; Matthew Baty - Drums; Adam Ian Sykes, Richard Dawson, Sam Grant - Guitar; Stephen Palmer - Vocals, Synth. Members of Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs, Blown Out & Richard Dawson. To celebrate their 10 year anniversary, Khünnt present new material on Riot Season titled Failures. Failures is a one track, near 40-minute hypnotic passage split over two parts for a 12" vinyl release. For the most part the album is less aggravated and more smoked out than Khünnt's previous output but be warned, it is no less intense. The album masterfully exploits repetition and dynamic to the point of overload, before collapsing into raw, feral carnage. The performance of Failures was expertly captured, mixed and mastered by Sam Grant (Bong - Stoner Rock (RITE 024LP, RITE 025CD), Haikai No Ku - Ultra High Dimensionality (BOXREC 006LP)) at Blank Studios, Newcastle. Edition of 150. On 140 gram black vinyl. Housed in 350gsm thick card sleeve.

"Dead Eyes displays a fearsome mastery of their sound, erecting walls of feedback and distortion only to tear them down with bare-fisted riffs and wraith-like howls. Powerful stuff -- highly recommended." ?Boomkat; "It's high bastard art and the lowest form of musical depravity in the land. Whatever audio system you choose to play Khunnt on will sound fucked beyond repair. It is truly horrible, and immensely satisfying." --Beard Rock; "The listener is an observer in this unspeakable war of noise. It's loud, unrelenting and unforgiving with its violent nature. If you're a fan of Khanate and Noothgrush, then you're going to love this." --Sludgelord; "The sounds merge and split and splinter, leaving listeners with no road map on what to expect. Through and through, Dead Eyes is relentless and crushing, drawing out fears through means of improvisational extraction" --Heavy Planet; Formed in 2006, Khünnt have fervently explored the boundaries of esoteric music, from minimalist noise to live improvisation and psychedelic mantra. Focusing exclusively on a more aggravated and blighted composition, Dead Eyes reflects the band's most recent forages into noise and sludge. Comparable to works by Corrupted, Khanate, and Noothgrush, the bleak and at times unbearable landscape of Dead Eyes is a passage of hypnotic despair. LP in hand-screenprinted sleeve with insert.
