| Earth Taking the waterfalls of drone and feedback that marked the first phase of the band – and whose legacy has paved the path taken by Sunn O))) and Boris, among others – as a starting point , Earth reshaped and reinvented their modus operandi, concentrating their primal heaviness in beautiful songs of slow, shimmering melody. Dylan Carlson guitar references both Ennio Morricone’s look into the Far West as well as La Monte Young’s minimalism, and the pulse of Adrienne Davies drumkit is unhurried and sparse, but precise and vital to the music; on this tour, Earth will take the stage with the returning Don McGreevy on bass guitar. Primitive and Deadly is the latest entry in their discography and yet another testament to Earth’s continuous evolution, showing the band rescue some of their original distortion and weight, and also add voice to their music, collaborating with singers such as Mark Lanegan for this purpose.
