Dirty Knobs – Field Recordings from the Edge of Hell -Dark ambient drone soundscapes from Zac Bentz. Every effort was made to preserve the original quality of this recording. The shifting, actively oppressive nature of the environment had an irreversible effect on both the equipment and personnel. As a result, some damage was permanent.-Жанр: Ambient, Dark Ambient, Doom, Drone, Noise, Soundscape Страна исполнителя: US (Duluth, Minnesota) Страна-производитель диска (релиза): US Дата издания: February 1, 2011 Тип издания: Web, Album Издатель (лейбл): Xero Music Каталожный номер: none Аудиокодек: FLAC (*.flac) Тип рипа: tracks Битрейт аудио: lossless Продолжительность: 8:56:43 Источник (релизер): Bandcamp Наличие сканов в содержимом раздачи: нет Треклист: 01.

Dirty Knobs is the experimental music of Zac Bentz. Originally formed in 1999 as a minimal glitch-oriented project, Dirty Knobs has evolved over the years into an expansive, dark-ambient beast. The 2011 album Field Recordings from the Edge of Hell, an 8 hour odyssey, received international acclaim with comparisons to Sunn O))), Arnold Schonberg, My Bloody Valentine, Skinny Puppy, Nurse With Wound and artists like Dante and Beksinski. Writer Warren Ellis describes the Dirty Knobs sound “like it was recorded in Hell’s deepest skull-silo.” “…Haunting at points and shimmeringly beautiful at others,” says Andrea Swensson of City Pages/Gimme Noise. Avant-cellist Zoe Keating, whom Dirty Knobs has remixed, calls the sounds “beautiful.”
