Description:

Vinyl LP pressing packaged in a thick, old-style case-wrapped gatefold jacket with printed inner sleeves. 2012 album from this minimalist doom duo featuring Adrian Guerra and Dylan Desmond (of Samothrace fame). With only the bare minimum at their disposal, the duo's massive, crushing soundscapes are executed with just bass, drums and dual-vocal pummel. Uniquely sorrowful, their debut full-length Longing is an hour and ten minutes of doomed desolation, sadness and sorrow-a time-stretching journey through darkness, pain and suffering. Longing has since become an influential sorrowful doomed classic.

Limited to 500 copies. Released in a heavy weight tip-on gatefold cover and additional printed inner sleeves with credits and lyrics. Mastering studio and lacquer cut at credits derived from the runout etchings. [On rear gatefold sleeve:] Under Exclusive License from Profound Lore Records [On second inner sleeve:] Recorded by [...] at the Soundhouse Studios, Seattle, WA Mixed by [...] and [...] at the Airport Grocery Studios, Seattle, WA
