Primitive Isolation Tactics

Primitive Isolation Tactics is the foremost example of how the current generation of Canadian noise builds on the foundation forged by some of the country's textural masters while expanding into new and ever more dynamic territory. There is plenty of monolithic crunching to sink your teeth into on "All Pressures Past," but the sounds skitter, jump, and implode into a satisfyingly damaged wreckage of burned wires and fried voltage. Primitive Isolation Tactics wields both patience and restlessness in equal measure, and perhaps the most satisfying aspect of "All Pressures Past" is the way it can hold your attention with minute details, or alternatively wash over you in meditative cascade of noise. A brilliant follow up to the lauded Time Hole CD on White Centipede Noise.
