Initiated in 2013, these collaborative recordings between Whitehorse and The Body fell by the wayside in 2014 due to various hurdles.
On announcement of the first The Body tour of mainland Australia with Whitehorse, hard drives were dusted off and the recording were summoned back to the desktop where Whitehorse threw down some hours to get the 2 works finished, introducing more recent additions to the line up, Rama and Dom and bringing in some fresh elements to the pieces worked on in 2013-14, along with some fresh guitar elements from Brent and Sean, a sputtering of vocals and a dusting of noise from Pete and Dave and a couple of beers and a gathering of the Whitehorse mixing wizards and we got a pretty smashing new release.
All going to plan a limited to 200 edition CD will be available on the tour
any remaining copies will be available from the bands or here once tour is complete.

Twisting, bending contortion of supreme distortion & my favorite work from the beautiful boys.
Incredibly, I ran into Chip and Lee at a Coffee shop in PDX and they did indeed warm my frostbitten soul. Sugammadex
The Alberta crushers hold tight to their rank, astral-gazing grindcore, staring down abyssal torment all the while. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 31, 2020
