This collaboration is between myself and Tomáš Homolík (drummer of The Owls, Dno, Rosa Parks and more). Sounds collected over the course of nearly 3 years of The Owls rehearsals.

Writing session shards and rehearsal room remnants; excavated, hacked, dusted off, glued, cross stitched, turned inside out and placed on top of each other. A noisy, abstract, weird and glitchy jazzed up exterior, with a heart of atmospheric doom and black metal in a psychedelic hazy form. I hope it sounds like nothing you hear before.

I decided to post this on here, because it has riffs and crazy rhythms, and also broken beats, loops, twists and turns and weird noises abound, so hopefully a few ears will get something from it.

For those who get rehearsal room jam sessions and their lo-fi sound., Orthrelm, Lightning Bolt, Massola, Elastic Riot, jazzgrind, noisegrind, drums & bass kombinace, early Igorrr, Squarepusher. Please investigate those bands if you don't know them.

Cheers for giving it a blast.

Captured on the trusty Zoom recorder; all in Klub Futra, Orlová, except for 'Return to ascend', recorded during a soundcheck for The Owls in Bašta, Bardejov, Slovakia and includes Blanka's vocals. I think this song and 'December 31st, 1979' would be great for The Owls.
