* PREORDER * ISIS - In The Absence Of Truth 2LP (colour vinyl)

* PREORDER * expected to arrive May

Limited edition red ecomix colour double vinyl. Black wax and CD also available.

Post-hardcore legends ISIS followed their 2004 critically acclaimed third LP, Panopticon, with two albums that found the band further exploring the symphonic, cinematic aspects of its previous work while also reminding longtime fans of the band’s roots as heir to bands like Eyehategod, Melvins, and Neurosis.

2006’s In The Absence of Truth is perhaps the moodiest ISIS LP, full of extended moments of ambient textures and ethereal, Sigur Rós-like soundscapes. These moments of ecstasy, however, frequently tumble into moments of pure apocalyptic rage. Aaron Turner’s vocals are especially accomplished here; he is a versatile singer capable of switching seamlessly from agonized, paint-stripping howls to clean vocals that perfectly complement the band’s intricate latticework of proggy post rock. Reissue is available in standard black and ultra clear color vinyl.

Though ISIS disbanded in 2010, the band undoubtedly left its mark on generations of aggressive bands to follow. Along with contemporaries like Pelican and Cave In, ISIS forged a legacy that continues to reverberate today in bands as disparate as Kowloon Walled City and Chat Pile.
