INFO:
Since Wolf Eyes formation during the end of the 90s up until
today, their musical output has grown into an impressive
oeuvre and gained them successes granted only a few bands.
Their style places them somewhere in the border area between
experimental music, freeform, noise and harsh industrial.
Black Wing Over The Sand is one long session (on vinyl divided
on side A and B) that from the very first beginning lays bare
the roots of Wolf Eyes: here is an evident presence of the
industrial music of the early 1980s with bands such as
Throbbing Gristle, Maurizio Bianchi (MB) and Gary MundyÆs
cassette label Broken Flag.
Instead of the harsh dissonances and compact walls of noise
Wolf Eyes are well known for, the wholly instrumental piece
moves slowly forward over a basis of silence. In that way
Black Wing Over The Sand belongs to one of the bandÆs more
accessible pieces of music, and is an excellent introduction
to the dark cosmos of Wolf Eyes. With oscillating movements,
Wolf Eyes conjure up short bursts of noise with screaming high
pitched tones where a rhythmic deep and slow bass soon sets
in, disappears, returns, increases pace, disappears and
returns again. Electric guitar, echo effects and sweeping
sounds creates powerfully nerved effects over the slow rhythm.
Black Wing Over The Sand is yet another proof of how Wolf
Eyes, simultaneously looking backwards and distinctly lets
themselves be influenced by the hidden musical undercurrents
that lies most close to their heart, with little means and
creative craftsmanship succeeds in creating something
altogether new, exciting and always unexpected.
Black Wing Over The Sand, now released on vinyl (limited to
900 copies) and shortly on CD, is a co- release from Kning
Disk and iDEAL Recordings. The album cover and inner sleeves
features art illustration by Andreas Nilsson, Fredrik
S÷derberg och Alivia Zivich.
This is a co-release w/ iDEAL Recordings
