I see that the CCA website is listing the Saturday gig as Tony Conrad's 'first UK Show' - utter bollox, cos I saw Conrad/Faust in London maybe ten years ago now? it was OK, but I'm more excited abt catching Double Leopards on the same bill - I contrived to miss most of their set at the SY ATP last year (I was watching Saccahrine Trust upstairs and they were great too, in their way)
I don't think Alba will like Wolf Eyes either

"Psychogeist," on the other hand, is an extended, ambient drone. Has some clangorous elements but overall, it's very subdued. Wolf Eyes dub. Both songs, actually, are rather relaxed in feel. Kinda nice, even. Definitely lacking the ear-drilling, bowel-clenching panic of Dead Hills & Burned Mind. More hypnotic than terror-inducing, and very much of a piece with the recent River Slaughter dbl LP. Massive trumpet squalls in the foreground, though often mutated almost beyond recognition.
True to form, it's all very cinematic, suggesting a railroad yard in darkness or an abandoned highway overpass. Occasional muted smears of red and green light in the distance. Wind over steel and concrete, hung machinery and patient rust. Cars and engines sweeping through but never stopping. You know: textbook industrial noir, and I'm still surprised haven't been tapped to do more soundtrack work. (Maybe they have and aren't interested. Dunno...)
Are they retreating, or moving forward? Hard to say, but the recent, Dilloway-free material does sound more similar to the Wolf Eyes of Slicer and the early singles and CD-Rs than to the "Slayer-influenced" sounds of 2004-05 (which came off more like a lo-fi, scuzzcore Skinny Puppy, anyway).
Great stuff, but I can't imagine this is gonna widen their fan base much...

I dunno, I saw them live last year and it was great. Results may vary, I guess.

filthy dylan, do you live in ypsilanti?
― Pillbox, Saturday, 26 July 2008 13:41 (fifteen years ago) link
Detroit, but it was in ypsilanti. Also, a while back Wolf Eyes did an installation at an art gallery and they showed all these records they made on their personal lathe including this chunk of vinyl that had two intersecting grooves and looked like an infiniti sign. It was pretty cool

Fucking dreadful.

dead hills is excellent, and such a beautiful picture disc
― r1o natsume, Saturday, 26 July 2008 17:18 (fifteen years ago) link
yeah, i still get in the mood to bust out Burned Mind and Dread every now and again. haven't heard Dead Hills, maybe i'll look that up.

Just d/led a Wolf Eyes CDR called delwar showdown and most of it seems to just be recordings of them hanging out and going to shows, yet it is at least semi awesome for a couple of listens. Can anybody recommend any more of their weird novelty-esque releases, no matter how obscure, rar has made obscurationists of us all u guys!

I set up a goodwill purchased receiver/speaker combo to boost my TV and DVD enjoyment and one of the first things I watched was the COVERED IN BUGS DVD. There's a great "rotten tropics" from a basement full of fifteen year olds in Ann Arbor at the end of the compilation segment.

Saw Wolf Eyes last night and they kinda sucked. All ponderous and glitchy. What happened to the awesome psychedelic sax freakouts I saw support Whitehouse a couple of years ago?
