_______________________________________________________________________
Wide is the second full-length release from Oakland,
California-based noise-artist Liz Harris (aka Grouper). This
time around Harris adds a little more structure to the
unsettling ambience that dazzled on 2005's Way Their Crept.
These compositions are more song-oriented, and the spacey
drones that haunted her debut have been beefed up with even
more swirling layers of tape hiss, sputtering static and
Harris's ghost-like vocals.
Harris recently collaborated with the folks in fellow Free
Porcupine Society ensemble 7 Year Rabbit Cycle on the
fantastic Ache Horns and will be appearing next at Wire
Magazine's 2006 Wire Fest with FPS label-mates Badgerlore.
