Marcia Bassett & Samara Lubelski

110 Livingston

Second album from this weighty pairing of two of America’s most audacious psychedelic drone proponents, following a stunning release on Graham Lambkin’s Kye label a couple of years back. The combination of Marcia Bassett’s pretty well processed guitar, squashing otherwise raging howls into densely packed tones of feedback wail, and Samara Lubelski’s long violin voyages into the drone zone is something wondrous to behold. One side-long trip and three shorter, but nevertheless expansive, explorations of black magic meditation.
