Earth Complete New Album

Posted on Wednesday, November 24th, 2010

Dylan Carlson’s seminal drone / avant-Americana outfit Earth have completed their next studio album, entitled Angels Of Darkness, Demons Of Light 1.

The follow-up to 2008’s The Bees Made Honey In The Lion’s Skull, and the recent A Bureaucratic Desire For Extra-Capsular Extraction reissue, it features another shake-up in the Earth line-up: joining Dylan Carlson and Adrienne Davies on the album is cellist Lori Goldston (Nirvana, David Byrne) and Karl Blau (K Records, Laura Veirs, Microphones) on electric bass. The touring band will feature Carlson, Davies, Goldston, and Angelina Baldoz on bass.

The album is said to draw inspiration from both British folk-rock bands Pentangle and Fairport Convention and the North African Tuareg band Tinariwen. The new material will be more melodically oriented than some of Earth’s previous work, and was recorded at Avast studios, Seattle in April and July 2010, with producer Stuart Hallerman – who notably recorded the band’s Earth 2 album.

Song titles for Angels Of Darkness… include ‘Father Midnight’, ‘Hell’s Winter’, ‘Old Black’, ‘Descent to the Zenith’ and ‘Angels Of Darkness, Demons Of Light’. The album is set for release in February 2011 via Southern Lord.

In other news, Earth have been confirmed for Sunn O)))‘s curated event at Roadburn Festival 2011, set for April 15th at the 013 venue in Tilburg, Holland.
