NYC s Bloody Panda released their critically lauded sophomore album Summon in late 2009 via Profound Lore Records. Now, 20 Buck Spin has the honor of bringing this harrowing, disturbing vision of doom to the analog format.Characterized by a horror-inflected wall of amplifier drone and stunning percussive arrangements that showcase a variety of tempos, Summon is a one-hour journey through the lowest depths and dankest dark chambers of doom. Front woman Yoshiko Ohara conjures both Diamanda Galas and Jarboe with her banshee-like screams,howls and vocal exorcisms. There s no doubt Summon is a difficult masterpiece of modern experimentalist doom abstraction,and it can now be enjoyed on four sides of pitchblack wax. Gatefold 2xLP limited to 500 copies, Includes DVD for a visual interpretation of side-long, 21-minute track Miserere , For fans of Swans, Yob, Diamanda Galas, Asunder, Corrupted, John Zorn.
