HORSEBACK Streaming Single “In Another Time, In And Out Of Form”
July 27, 2016, 8 years ago
North Carolina drone/experimental project Horseback has premiered "In Another Time, In And Out Of Form". The tune comes by way of the forthcoming Dead Ringers full-length.
Issues Horseback mastermind Jenks Miller, "'In And Out Of Form' is built on traditional 'rock band' instrumentation, and it's the only track on Dead Ringers with its basic tracks recorded live. The other musicians featured on this one -- John Crouch (drums), Nick Petersen (bass), and Rich James (rhythm guitar) -- also appeared on Half Blood (2012) and Piedmont Apocrypha (2014)."
Dead Ringers, Horseback's newest full-length album, is a lush, heady, and singular blend of organic and synthetic textures. The new LP sees the one-man Chapel Hill, North Carolina experimental project continuing to evolve while staying true to their distinctive sound. Written, produced, engineered, and mixed by Jenks Miller, Dead Ringers finds Horseback weaving a bright web of drone, Krautrock, shoegaze, metal, and psychedelic elements, driven by wispy guitars, synths, beats, and clean vocals, and bolstered by dense layers of hypnotic resonance. The music is heavy yet light, stretching across eight tracks (including one mammoth 17 minute epic). Taking influence from the doomiest grooves and the nuance of minimal electronics, Dead Ringers is the most cohesive representation of Horseback's musical vision to date.
Dead Ringers is set for release this coming August 12th via Relapse on CD/2LP/Digital. Physical pre-order packages are available via Relapse.com here; digital pre-orders can be found via the band's Bandcamp page here.
