Tom Colquhoun Darkly esoteric, this whole album radiates a kind of evil that is immense and tragic, one which lays waste to human and animal. Guitars cut like decaying chords of sinew through a toxic fume of smoke, electronic drones shine down like an unkind sky, while thick walls of sound pulse like the beating of a vast, black heart. A feral and gut-churning meditation from first to last. Favorite track: Our Epitaph.

Dead plain, Empty landscape like An open palm, Accept this gift, a Blood token of thanks

Our Epitaph 13:51
Tremors of sky Punctuated by flares Above primeval ruins Once spectral and sacred Now exiled by holy fire Now engulfed in an embrace Of genocidal subdivision The hollow carcass Of a now extinct colossus That cuts a fresh canyon Into the sediment Corroding an abyss Of incalculable midden Saline beds and white tanks Evaporating flames New dominions In the atmosphere Looming overhead Contaminated blazes Neverending silver towers Breathing fire in the sky Mountains of sulfer Distilled beneath dead air These formations bear witness To our epitaph To our epitaph

about

‘New Dominions’ is the product of the collaborative work of two pillars of underground blackened-doom-drone acts Horseback and Locrian. Both acts are well loved for their own flavors of wholly original smoldering blackened drone, but combining forces finds them creating a beautiful piece of mysterious darkened psychedelia. Previously available only in an extremely limited vinyl pressing, ‘New Dominions’ has been remastered by James Plotkin and expanded to include 3 more tracks. First edition of the cd is housed in a gorgeous mini-LP style tip on jacket.
