about

-

Finally, after ten years in production, the deeply unsettling Iron Filings and Sellotape release is at last upon us. Twenty tracks taking us on a psychedelic voyage within the geopolitical world through a series of tape experiments, lo-fi beats, mournful passages and darkly disturbing noise-fields.

-

Iron Filings and Sellotape is a collective made up of persons unknown, centred around the concept of producing works of music, film and literature with exclusively found elements and obsolete technologies. Field recordings, tape noise, vinyl crackle, mixed in with processed loops, psychedelic melodic spirals, rumbling bass, lo-fi drum-sets, dialogue from historic recordings, and occasionally the voice of jamesreindeer, contributing lyrics penned through a most hallucinogenic filter of the geopolitical sphere.

-

"...all materials contained in this release were recorded and manipulated with obsolete technology and without the aid of any sequencing software..."

Easily album of the year so far. A sprawling, buzzing droning journey into the apocalypse. A heartbroken look at the downfall of humanity. Scorched black and ashen. This is music for a roadtrip into Gehenna and Abaddon. Creaking electronics and wheezing beat-boxes soundtrack a journey into a society that's dead on its feet, lurching unthinkingly to its own demise. Buy it, succumb to the cold skeletal embrace.
