BUY THIS ALBUM: Konau - "Speech From The Shadows"


Konau is the conglomeration of cold meat industry's New Risen Throne and afe's Subinterior. Unfortunately, this is their only release and it came out in 2006 on Eibon records. To put it bluntly, this album is pure fucking darkness. One of the most brooding, evil, ambient releases I have come across. It has the huge, deep, abyssal rumbling low end of New Risen Throne, but with some additional dimensions supplementing it. The tracks are mostly droning soundscapes, though they are detailed enough to hold interest and not get monotonous. The solid production elevates this into the must own area. Fans of black droning ambient cannot pass this up!!
