Slow Listener

Boomkat review of:
SLOW LISTENER - Snow Failing From A Blue Clear Sky
I haven't concealed my deep love for the beautifully presented Ruralfaune label, but here's where it gets really special. Slow Listener come from Brighton, but you couldn't guess from the music - he manages to produce a shockingly beautiful long-form pieces of hissing, degraded beauty which defies easy comparison although I guess the most obvious link would be to William Basinski, who shares a similar love for the slow and degraded sounds of old tapes.

Menace Ruine

Menace Ruine came together in Montreal, Quebec, Canada in autumn 2006, when they began composing the songs that would form their debut recording, In Vulva Infernum. While the debut album Cult Of Ruins, took its starting point in fast black metal and noise, the follow-up, The Die is Cast stays true to the metal sound. The tempo has been slowed down, and could be described as heavy down-tempo drone with martial rhythms. The original lineup: Geneviève - vocals, instruments, lyrics;
S. de La Moth - vocals, instruments.
