Warm Planes is much more of a drone based disc, downright dreamy at times, an amazing collection of dynamic tectonic guitar-drone rumble, very prescient considering the current love of all things doomdronedirge. And holy shit does this stuff hold up. Dense and thick and viscous, these tracks move at a crawl, slowly and completely engulfing everything it their path, filling your ears with a murky black buzz. Some of the tracks dial back the grrrrr a bit, offering up soft ripples of muted feedback, and shimmering swells of amp buzz, while others are expansive sheets of crystalline shimmer, but the majority, are thick and snarling beasts, steel strings reverberating through big black speakers, and wrapping us up in thick tendrils of guitar growl.

RST - Other Machines (Celebrate Psi Phenomenon, 2007)

01 Worlds
02 Ages
03 Earth

Drones majestueux de guitare...

Remember rst? In my mind at least this hopelessly under-monikered giantcrusher was responsible for one of the sweeeetest Corpus Hermeticum releases to see daylight... fabulously deep, warm pools of demagnetising guitar brilliance. Andrew Moon seemed to disapparate as smoothly as he had appeared in the first place and many of us record-goobers wondered what had become of him. Well, lie awake no more! If 'Other Machines' doesnt qualify as a triumphant return then Im selling my domain-name on eBay and emigrating to Norway. With straightfaced titles like 'Worlds', 'Earth', and 'Ages' you know you are in for an earthquake of quite some magnitude. Each disc a slow-motion exhalation through the everlasting nothingness of the national grid. Without destination or purpose. An electrical godhead in waiting for its copper-wire coronation. So majestic.
