Low Orbit Releasing Crater Creator Nov. 19
Let’s assume that if the abiding image you’re giving your listenership is of an asteroid slamming into the surface of… something…, leaving a crater behind, you’re dealing one way or the other with some heavy shit. Thus it is with Low Orbit‘s Crater Creator, the Toronto trio’s first LP in four years since 2017’s Spacecake (review here), which will see release Nov. 19. Apparently that’s like one week from now? I have no idea what day, week, or month it is anymore. Honestly, if it wasn’t for the Gimme Metal show making me write down a date once a fortnight, I’d probably still think it was 2018.
You fucking wish, old man. Ha.
Anyway, Low Orbit have the title-track of the Ian Blurton-produced new album up now, and you should put some headphones on and listen. That’s how I did it anyway, and no regrets for the additional low-end punch my brain received all the more directly for doing so. Balancing that with vocal echoes ain’t exactly unheard of as a methodology for creating a sense of space, but damned if it doesn’t work.
Looking forward to the rest of the album. For now, the following:
