Like the friendly person on the album cover, Chicago's
Implodes aren't here to bring you ice cream.
Marker is a five minute monstrosity that silently attempts to bury the listener under a rolling cloud of noise and reverb, thereby constructing a mind-altering psychedelic soundscape made up of deeply unsettling drones and echoing guitar walls, driven solely by a stoically monotone drum pattern, epic all the way. Watch out for Implodes' debut LP, aptly titled
Black Earth, to be released April 20 on
Kranky.
