WOLVES IN THE THRONE ROOM — Two Hunters

"WOLVES IN THE THRONEROOM’s music is rooted in the traditions of Black Metal, but they subvert the common aesthetic and ideology in order to remain true to their own personal manifestations. Their strong convictions appropriately compliment the confident decisive execution of their sound. This is the sound of paradox, ambiguity and confusion, Catharsis is the objective, not a lilly-white and guilt free existence. Death and rebirth, transformation and enlightenment. They believe that in Black Metal, there is great truth, transcendence and power. Two Hunters was recorded on tape, at London Bridge and Aleph Studio by RANDALL DUNN (Earth, Sunn 0))), Boris, Kinski) in the Pacific Northwest.. The process of the recording was very organic with very minimal use of any digital effects or manipulation. JESSICA KINNEY (previous collaborations with Eyvind Kang and Asva) provides beautifully dark vocals on "Cleansing" and "I Will Lay Down My Bones Among the Rocks and Roots." The groups willingness to experiment with unconventional methods of recording and collaborate with avant-garde musicians sets them apart from the mundane normalcy that plagues many Black Metal bands albums as of late. This willingness to take chances and forge ahead with disregard of convention or boundaries makes them a perfect fit on the Southern Lord roster." [label notes]
