The Violent Blow

After a long time out of print Sacred Trails 7", a new release from Altar Of Flies for Wendy.
Minimalistic textures, tape loops, field recordings and junk abuse, all mixed in an unique cruel sound. AOF explores line between man and nature, with analog machines he transforms in sound the cold of his lands, the feeling of no light, the man perfection in loneliness. The result is the must organic, deep and dark AOF release ever.
A new start for this criminally underrated artist, a new powerfully sound that places Mattias Gustafsson as one of the best noise act in Europe. Mastered by Riccardo Mazza (Lettera 22).
Full colour artwork by Daniel Fagerstr�m, black 140 gr vinyl, color labels, A4 insert.
