Wow, you guys crammed a shit-ton of sounds into one song and made it sound like a cohesive beast...I don't know who the knob turner was but the distinction b/t the soaring clean guitar parts and the low-end is ace - exactly how it should be done...a lotta bands get the epic parts of otherwise killer tunes a bit too muddled, IMO...not the case w/ this song...looking forward to hearing the full album as Mantar and Hark need some company in my daily listening queue.

Thank you for the kind words. Our good friend Fester did the engineering/mixing - he's got his hands all over a lot of really good stuff coming out of Portland and he also is an outstanding guitar player (he's in two bands: Humours and Burials - both excellent)...and this time around we had a little more time to spend in the studio, which really helped I think.

Killer song. Looking forward to picking this up. I liked Sickness Will Pass a lot so i know I can expect Life Drawing to be just as good if not better.

Thanks, man. I definitely feel it's better...a more complete offering with more depth. Hope you dig it.

This album is super fucking good. Loving the mix of the oppressive bass with the intricate guitar parts. It might sound odd to call an album this dark and heavy "fun," but the mix of monolithic riffs and intricate guitar parts puts a shit-eating grin on my face every time. Great chemistry. Great players all around. This album, Hark and Mantar are the best things I've heard this year by a long-shot.
