Whore’s Breath — North Of The Viaduct

North Of The Viaduct is an example of a more layer active wall craft from Cincinnati’s Whore’s Breath. It’s a thirty-minute track that rewardingly weaves together several textual profiles and interesting tonal details for an engaging yet expertly controlled wall-noise ride.

This is a self-released digital affair. The cover artwork is a black and white hazy picture, which could be a picture of either an out-of-focus ceramic insulator or a distant tower. The release can be found here. 

The single track comes in at dead on the thirty-one-minute mark. To begin with, we find a mix of mid-range bay and racing rattle/ knock/ roll. But as things progress, we get darting, to slightly longer moments of cluttering junk like hiss, grain spin, and reeling sear, and even what may be distant wayward chatter weaved into/ through the two initial elements. All the elements are perfectly controlled and balanced together, with the ‘wall’ managing the difficult balancing act between continual flow and creative shift/ dart, without losing any momentum.

With each new release Whore’s Breath truly are creating keener, more creative, and rewarding work- and North Of The Viaduct is another impressive step in the projects wall-noise artistry.
