The new LP is named in honor of the local woods and riverlands that continue to inspire the studio project. This record is an account of a life spent in the rotten heartlands of neoliberal capitalism and a tribute to the vibrant underground music cultures that thrived before the second half of the last decade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExpanding on the directness of 'Nightmare Visions', 'Ashes' is grander in scope, and is internally regarded as a more focused analogue to 2019's 'Mirror in Darkness'. Hafsteinn Vioar Arsaelsson's dark and intricate illustrations once again accompany the music with striking depictions of abandoned landscapes, arranged to invoke a sense of catastrophe and unwilling transformation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrimary musical influences include Death Grips' 'Jenny Death' (which the record homages in its gradient-like structure, its centerpiece 'Still You Haunt Me' even acting as a reimagined 'On GP'), the downtuned hyperaggressions of Morbid Angel's 'Gateways to Annihilation', and the cinematic, raw intimacies of Pelican's 'The Fire in Our Throats Will Beckon the Thaw'.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContributions include reamping and additional mixing by longtime collaborator Maya Chun (of screamo prodigies Heavenly Blue and countless solo projects) in the frigid spaces of Detroit's Telescope Vision Studio.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTHEOPHONOS create a punishing sound that amalgamates dissonant black metal with forward thinking post-metal\/post-hardcore\/screamo. A sound coming across as a mix between artists found on labels such as Norma Evangelium Diaboli, Hydra Head, Revelation Records, and Equal Vision.
