Earth, one of the premier drone metal bands, is very well-respected in the community of noise music. With records such as this, it's easy to see why. Though three of the songs on this record are old songs they've played before, they changed the style of the song from their original fuzzy, heavy drones into the style more prominently explored on Hex: Or Printing In The Infernal Method, making them sound like different songs altogether. The one original song on the record, "A Plague Of Angels", is rife with psychedelic, yet mesmerizingly thin drones, plodding drums, and a distinct country influence. It's a bit long for an EP, but don't miss it if you are a fan of Earth, or just need some ethereal drone metal in your life.
