News: BRANDON SEABROOK'S NEEDLE DRIVER Debut Streaming At Decibel Magazine; Needle Driver EP Sees Release Friday Via Nefarious Industries

Decibel Magazine is now streaming the Needle Driver debut by BRANDON SEABROOK'S NEEDLE DRIVER - the newest project of avant-jazz guitarist Brandon Seabrook - which sees release tomorrow via Nefarious Industries.

 

The material on the Needle Driver EP was written and sharpened over a two-year period of ceaseless rehearsing and steadfast guerrilla tactics. Damaged skronk, asymmetric time signatures, fractured guitar blasts, and hulking bass are the hallmarks of this trio. Incredibly diverse tones run deep through the record, with jaw-dropping musicianship bursting forth from each member, with unfathomably complex arrangements shining through gleaming, ethereal soundscapes, resulting in a unique, immersive, and impressive listening experience. Needle Driver was recorded, mixed, and mastered by legendary engineer Martin Bisi (Swans, Sonic Youth) in the cavernous BC Studios.

 

With their stream of the Needle Driver EP, Decibel declares, "the trio defy musical expectations and typical song construction in favor of off-the-wall instrumental tracks that range from low and slow ('Ventwhorerisin') to erratic, jazzy shredfests ('Entropic Vacuum Party')."
