Deep inside an abandoned bunker on New Zealand's north island, With
Throats as Fine as Needles have perfected their craft. On this, their
debut CD release, the group has expanded to a quartet. Birchville Cat
Motel's Campell Kneale and Pseudoarcana chief, Antony Milton, have
joined forces with James Kirk (Sandoz Lab Technicians, Gate) and Richard
Francis (Eso Steel) to create a claustrophobic, organic web of massive
drones.
Everything on this CD was recorded outdoors with battery-powered
instruments. Underneath the ground, the quartet burrows out their own
cavern, bouncing sounds off the walls until it becomes a singular, solid
mass. Each gently sculpted tone floats in humid air. The music is
saturated with the dirt and grime from a million a years of human
history, wailing out in unison like an excavation turned exorcism. With
Throats as Fine as Needles are your guides through this aural fog.
