Description
Tennessee-based, feedback-laden, instrumental bass and drum duo, BLACK TAR PROPHET, will release their second full-length next month via the eclectic sound peddlers at Domestic Genocide. Titled Deafen, the nine track behemoth was recorded live with Max Otworth (Lysura, Venality) at Sonic Hex Recording Compound and sounds like planets colliding. Wholly organic, Deafen delivers an unapologetically raw, corrosive barrage of sludgy, tar-thick bass riffing, battering drum work and fuzzy noise-strewn, distortion meant to be played at strategically loud volumes.
Comments bassist/noise enthusiast Greg Swinehart, “When we tracked this album, we planned on keeping a strong, raw, live sound. We didn’t want an overproduced sounding record. We don’t want to be the same shit as all the other bands out there. People like us or hate us. And fuck it either way. The backbone behind BLACK TAR PROPHET is hate mixed with a big fuck you. We’re not trying to jump on any bandwagon. We play what we like. And whatever genre it is, we don’t care. We are happy working with Domestic Genocide and hope to provide more noise before 2015, book as many shows as we can, and stay active, as we have been the past three years.”
