"They Are Never Coming Back" (NORENT068)

by Wulven

supported by

Cody Drasser The analog equivalent to Belong’s October Language album if it was conceived in the cold vasts of interstellar space rather than terrestrial, waterlogged earth. The grit, static, and textural decay of Tim Hecker, William Fowler Collins and Growing also springs to mind at times. Wulven plumb similar depths and achieve beautiful and terrifying heights every bit as majestic, emotional and awe-inspiring. Warm, gorgeous and bleak ambient music that is undeniably shaped by human hands.

about

We're proud to present the first physical release of Wulven

Nashville's Wulven usually infuse their heavy shoe gaze with doom metal and ambient elements: textural in more than a layering way, amplifier-imbued sonically rich ambient like if the Cure had "Dixie" Dave Collins on bass.

When we heard they were making a much less musical, purely ambient album about a lost colony of space explorers we knew we had to be involved.

While the destination is distant the sounds are close to the vest, not dramatic epic but atmospherically matter-of-fact epic. Made from a wave – not waves – of singular, masterful, and focused distortion that hums with the explosive musicality of the South.

Unlike many line-in to reverb ambient efforts which feel like being stuck under fluorescent lights, They Are Never Coming Back gives ‘vibration’ over ‘pulse’ and movement over voltage. Not saying this doesn’t use tons of reverb

– it does –

just the natural amp sound leads to a believable tonality where you don't think about how it was made.

Trying to say it's easy to get lost in. Stunner of a debut / we're lucky to release it.

I cannot praise this album enough. This album is absolutely terrifying! The many starts and stops creates this very h settling tension. Each start expands on the stopper idea previously. It’s like the music equivalent of walking through thick fog while passing out multiple times throughout trying to find a place to orientate yourself. There may or may not be something sinister in that fog, but you don’t want to stick around to find out. Bought the vinyl so I summon the fog demons through spe showhornwithteeth

The sound of being incinerated by a heatwave. Feels like a concentrated beam of sand hits you in the chest, splattering grains like shrapnel. Amazing record. Fuck you, Adam Lehrer. I bet your podcast blows. phoebe}}}}}}}}}}}}
