Stream CHROME WAVES’ Recursive remix album HERE.
New Noise Magazine is hosting the exclusive public stream of Recursive, from Midwestern post-black metal outfit CHROME WAVES – a re-envisioned version of their recently released The Rain Will Cleanse LP, featuring remixes from Sanford Parker, Statiqbloom, Deeper Graves, Lotus Thrones, Gridfailure, and Wrathchild.
CHROME WAVES’ third album The Rain Will Cleanse
was released in September as a joint effort through Transcending
Records and Disorder Recordings. Further exploring the realms of
shoegaze, alternative, and non-metal influences while retaining elements
of their brooding post-black metal, the album was recorded at Disorder
Recordings by guitarist Jeff Wilson and at Postal Recording by Tyler
Watkins who also handled mixing and mastering.
Just as The Rain Will Cleanse expanded the band’s sound, CHROME WAVES now grows the boundaries of the record with Recursive,
a full remix version of the album. All elements of the album’s six
original tracks were outsourced to an array of the band’s allies and
remixed/reinterpreted in the same order. Opening track “When Night
Falls” is here remixed by ex-Wolvhammer drummer Heath Rave’s solo entity
Lotus Thrones. “Sometimes” is remixed by Demiricous and ex-CHROME WAVES drummer Dustin Boltjes’
solo project Wrathchild. “Tired” is remixed by renowned
producer/composer, solo artist, member of Corrections House, Mirrors For
Psychic Warfare, Twilight, and more, Sanford Parker. “A Future” is
re-envisioned by ex-Heidnik/ex-Theologian member David Brenner’s
audiovisual project Gridfailure. “Wind Blown” is reworked from inside by
CHROME WAVES’
own Jeff Wilson and his post-punk solo venture Deeper Graves. The album
closer “Aspiring Death” is delivered through a remix by former
Batillus, Inswarm, Theologian, Tombs multi-instrumentalist Fade Kainer
and his Statiqbloom.
Writes
Jeff Wilson on the vision of the project, “In a time when music is
consistently less important than business, we wanted to take things back
a bit to the 1990s, when your band’s songs were more important than
your Spotify plays. Artistry was more important than content creation.
Songwriting was above social media follows. Every artist on this album
has played an important part in the history of this band, whether it be a
collaborator, an influence, a bandmate, or a combination of the above.
This is a compilation of our influences more than an auxiliary release.
These are people pertinent to our evolution and our existence. These are
people more important than the ‘“metal media.’ The people make it
happen.”
