Crack Cloud – Peace and Purpose [2LP]

Double LP pressed on 180-gram transparent clear vinyl with lyric bookletNo Export outside of North AmericaCant go over it. Cant go under it. Gotta go through it. And somewhere out there in the Pitch black beyond all darkness lies Peace & Purpose. The horizon you never quite crest until the inevitable end. Breathe deep this fearful moment is the most alive youre ever gonna feel.For the last decade, Crack Clouds vision has grown ever more expansive, more cinematic. Last go around, they dropped from The Heavens and then performed with their bare backs to an endless darkening desert. Now theyve crammed all that life into some metallic and strange object called Peace & Purpose.All the terror of living. All the helplessness. All the raw human will. All glued and screwed and locked into this impossible tactile shape of dungeon dub; sour milk vox; Avant-protest music.Music armwrestling itself to the ground. Far afield of beauty. The discordant symphony of factory farming and grim timber of the meat processing plant. The grinding din of the cogs. And yet, never giving up in spite of all good sense. Even in death, we are a coterie of survivors.
