about

Workerless Mill refers to a building that begins to take on the qualities of a giant living entity. It perceives itself as the messianic offspring of the Sumerian goddess Inanna.
More broadly it's about objects taking on living qualities. And the history of graven imagery and idols.

lyrics

carved in wood
nights rite subsumed
could this giant die there too?
synapses, flashes, mindless
inanna, uruk
then so is the world
a workerless mill across a timeless void
born of the loom
again destroyed by nights moon
embattled by the wild
silently worlds surround
but how the christ did know
into the womb
take these lamps for the night, out of the wall
a worker-less mill, at 100 yards
a timeless void
when he is born drungnr dies
i am inert but alive
to protect the blue prism

about

Phantom Glue Boston, Massachusetts

An avalanche of distortion, psychedelicized occult coloured howlings and roars on early colonial america colliding with mythology and surrealistic nightmares. Phantom Glue have tapped a sunken Lovecraftian vein and extracted a uniquely rotten drek of something you inexplicably know but can't name. ... more

Mike's old rock band; think Van Halen meets Jesus Lizard meets Zep (or not...we're just making this shit up) Phantom Glue

J / Q
by J / Q

Super heavy psychedelic pop songs; think a Bowie/Floyd/Devo mashup playing out of Torche's equipment. Mike hacks out some guitar on a couple of these tracks along w/ Adam and Steve of Cave In. Phantom Glue

Nick's other band where he plays guitar; think our more melodious twin. Phantom Glue

This album is an absolute banger. The riffs are especially groovy this time, the vocals are amazing, and the overall thing is supercatchy. If I'd have to list one downside, it's that the mix is so bass-heavy that the sound only truely comes into it's right when listened on good headphones or extremely good speakers. On anything less it can sound like the bass drowns the rest of the music out. 9/10 Buzzario
