about

Political noise, alt-rock post-rock raga-rock stoner folk. Made at home.

Note : Due to Bandcamp restrictions, this is an incomplete version of this album.

"As flames rose up in Cairo and the euro crashed in the land of Greek gods, Hills! Werewolves! Run! (Marc Gillen, Stephen Benson) recorded their second album.

Opening track ‘Heat Death of the Universe’ is a colossal dirge of repetitive crashing guitars and tribal drums, melody and rhythms sift slowly through its pockets of light, like Les Rallizes Denudes floating in space. Then comes ‘Alexandra’ bristling with melody, stop start rhythms, fuzz bass, and lost radio waves giving an aura of restless yearning and existential threat.

‘All aboard’ is a sombre and stately love letter to artists and political dissidents through the ages, as violin and folk guitar warble sweetly in hope of safer shores and esoteric encounters.

’Rhino’ is an eastern flavoured instrumental at the albums centre providing calming waves of shimmering guitar and off kilter percussion in the midst of stormy surroundings.

At the albums close comes the trilogy ‘We Fight, We Breathe, We Fall’ a fifteen minute call to arms, mixing the introspection of Low’s ‘Sunflower’ with the juttering rage of blast first period Sonic Youth, smoke and tattered flags billow from its schizoid guitars and drums. This ecstatic fury gives way to layered drones and soaring flute, allowing us to stand still for a moment in clearing light as the world keeps running ever faster to nowhere." - Marc Gillen.
