{ } by Still

Cries of ‘more’ have always followed the exploits of STILL. With the release of their debut full length album, ‘{ }’, the hungry howls of both fans and critics will finally be sated.

With recording and mixing by Joe Clayton of No Studio (Leeched, Pijn) and mastering by Sam Vaney of Lead & Sulfur (Cortez, Throane), ‘{ }’, is a seed wrenched from the gloom by these masterful fingers and nurtured to new stomach churning heights.

‘{ }’ sees STILL take a volatile leap out of the shadows with a painfully inflective assessment of existence and the human experience; a tonal landscape stark and harrowing but not without beauty. Occasional flashes of majestic glacial black metal cascade across the scape scorching the rugged, thundering sludge and thrashing post hardcore. With every revolution of these jarring components the anguish expands, each passing dissonant harmony or devastating rhythm is enveloped in the crush of the next.
