HEy bitches!!!


Just in case anyone is interested in my drone bands new album. It will be released February 27th on Utech records. I still don't know how it is going to be sold online. But if you want a CD, they will be available aplenty. (EU folks hit me up, I get a bunch that I could sell, but sending them back to the US would not make much sense.)

Owwl > Dark Places > Utech Records > URCD067
AVAILABLE FEBRUARY 27
Certain places are more horrifying than others, closer to the source of primordial terror, be it the netherworld, the glacial outerspace of Lovecraftian ancient evil or simply the subconscious. Such places are sources of myth and awe. For their second album, Owwl tapped into these sources. Dark Places channels the world's sinister sites. The results are minimally shifting walls of drone, oppressive and entrancing like stars in a forlorn place or the historic pitfall of ground drenched with a thousands' blood. Subliminally pounding and sparkling with overtones the ancient harmonium and processed guitar feedback condense to the point that both instruments blend together. With their unedited and improvised recordings Owwl turn sound into space.

Well if U.S. folks pay enough can we get some love?

utech is in the U.S. so you can order from them.

HECK YEAH. UTECH IS AWESOME. YOU ARE AWESOME

Exactly. It would be much easier and quicker for US folks to buy directly from the label or maybe even a record store, I don't know if he's listed or stocks some record stores. Possible.

Never heard of Utech before this thread but I love a lot of the releases they are putting out. Really cool label!

I'm impatient so I'll probably order a CD here shortly

Ordered the album

Also bought Ural Umbo's Delusion of Hope on vinyl, really dug their sound as well. Utech is just too damn awesome!

DUDE SICK DUDE LIKE REALLY SICK

I'm stoked for you!

yep i think everyone here should highly consider purchasing this, it's a great album

Oh shit. First review up:

"We first discovered mysterious multiple w'd dronedrift outfit Owwl via a cd-r that showed up one day in the mail, and we were pretty much totally smitten on first listen. This German duo specializes in that sort of ultra minimal dronemusic we can't ever get enough of, blackened sprawls of obsidian thrum and softly pulsating rumbles, long tones spread way out and layered into lush landscapes of dark overtones and perceived rhythms. The thing that really made Owwl stand out was that they augmented their drones with a 19th century reed organ, giving the sound a haunting organic feel, and transforming it into something much more emotional and evocative than most the guitardrone records we hear.
So it makes perfect sense that they would end up on Utech, who seem to specialize in the sort of blackened minimalism and psychdrone mesmer that Owwl traffic in, and it is indeed a perfect match. This latest missive from Owwl is even darker and denser than the cd-r, the sounds impossibly lush, at times reminding us of some Phill Niblock piece slowed down to a crawl, but with the same sort of overtones, the sound deceivingly static, but alive with all manner of sonic subtleties. But it's not all pure dronemusic, the band do explore a more psychedelic sound, creating shimmery ragas, the harmonium unfurling a gorgeously warm thrum, that the group stretch waaaaay out, wreathing it in guitar buzz and pulsating swells of crumbling distortion, or wrapping it in sheets of muted feedback. The sound veers into an almost industrial black ambience, abject and corrosive, but still washed out and dreamlike, before settling into a long stretch of whirring chordal shimmer, a dense softnoise cloud that seems to ooze and expand, the sound growing more and more lush, the blackness revealing colors hidden within, a smoldering soundworld of blunted tones, blurred chords, and beautiful black drift.
LIMITED TO 300 COPIES!! Housed in a super striking oversized sleeve."
