The long awaited new album by the ongoing duo of Stephen O'Malley (Sunn O))), Gravetemple) and Peter Rehberg (Pita) is the first full length KTL release that is not commissioned work for theatre or film. Whereas the ‘Kindertotenlieder' trilogy of 1, 2 and 3 were blurred washes of fog and noise polished in by ambient shine, "IV" is a more direct and demanding beast, referencing such diverse projects as; volume era Swans, Mecca period Cabaret Voltaire, phase one Wire, Fushitsusha and This Heat... "IV" is a stunning new direction and great addition to both artists' already impressive canon, with blowtorch riffs... sub bass rumbles... driving bass pulse interwoven with razor sharp guitar... arhythmic and punishing drumming (courtesy of Atsuo, from Japanese top-rockers Boris)... black frozen resonant harmonics. Produced by Jim O'Rourke. Highly recommended!
