Locrian
Chicago based duo Locrian combine elements of noise, psychedelia, noise and drone. We first heard it here on their CD “Drenched Lands“. This fine album has now been reissued on vinyl in a very limited edition of 200 copies with a bonus 3″ CDR. It seems like a really small edition, especially as we almost missed out on this - it seemed to sell out in a very small window of time. Anyhow, we landed a few copies and it is gorgeously packaged in a letterpress sleeve with a glossy insert and pressed on clear vinyl. The CDR is exclusive to this edition and is a live recording from Phil von Zweck’s program on WLUW FM. For that session they were joined by Andrew Sherer of Valnias and Mark Solotroff of Bloodyminded and Intrinsic Action. Heavy and doomy stuff. We also got some of the last copies of Locrian’s 7″ “Plague Journal“. All white, cover and vinyl, the 33 RPM grooves contain some awesome psychedelic noise. Blissful stuff.
