Locrian & Mamiffer / Bless Them That Curse You

Profound Lore

Bless Them That Curse You is the anticipated collaboration between two of the most respected and forward-thinking bands in the experimental / progressive music realm.  Chicago, Illinois’s Locrian craft epic waves of ambient noise mixed with elements of black metal and soundscape drone. The prolific group has assembled a mesmerizing and genre-defying body of work that continues to progress with each release. Founded by artist Faith Coloccia after the dissolution of her experimental project Everlovely Lightningheart, Mamiffer blends neoclassical piano with ambient electronic hums and reductionist metal dirge. Coloccia has collaborated with myriad musicians in the past but found a steadiness with her Mamiffer co-conspirators Travis Rommeriem and her partner Aaron Turner (of Isis / Hydra Head Records fame). Bless Them That Curse You fuses the two bands’ unique styles in an elegant and beautiful marriage. Adding layer upon layer of sound to color a vast sonic canvas, Locrian and Mamiffer exceed all expectations, delivering a whole far greater than the sum of its parts. The album was recorded at Steve Albini’s Electrical Audio studios in Chicago and mixed by Randall Dunn in Seattle.
