Listen to Ben Frost's new EP 'Threshold of Faith', produced by Steve Albini
Thursday Jul 27th 2017
Icelandic producer and composer Ben Frost is equally influenced by classical minimalism as by punk rock and metal. Frost just released his new EP 'Threshold of Faith', which you can stream now. It is produced by Steve Albini (Shellac), who previously worked with a.o. PJ Harvey, Slint and Nirvana.
"[Frost is] articulate when discussing what he’s doing, loading comments about his work with heavy concepts and meaning: his interviews fold in references to biology, astronomy, literature, nature, art, professional basketball. For all this, his music is equally fascinating when you strip away the context and simply let the sounds he’s making overtake you" - Pitchfork
Stream 'Threshold of Faith' below. Ben Frost performs at Le Guess Who? 2017 together with a.o. Pharoah Sanders, James Holden, William Basinski, Grouper, The Bug vs Dylan Carlson of Earth, Liars, Gas, Jenny Hval, Moor Mother, Yves Tumor, and many more.
