"It’s been four years since Robedoor released their previous LP on Hands in the Dark, Primal Sphere, but this spring Britt and Alex Brown return with a new odyssey of chaos and psychosis: New Age Sewage. Written and recorded across multiple seismic life events (moves, births, deaths), the album is centered on heavy visions of negative west coast mythology. Themes of poison, hallucination, conspiracy, and false messiahs weave within their sinkholes of mystic sludge.The duo’s music has grown darker, denser, and more visceral with each album. There’s a sense of practiced ritual, of deepening meditation, portals opening against their will. New Age Sewage documents half a decade of the band’s hermetic focus, shaped by instinct, will, and apocalyptic realities."

L.A.’s lowest dungeon downers continue their narco drip into smoke-stained bleak psych, the latest saga of which is Too Down To Die, the band’s first full-length since March 2010’s Burners LP. The journey was a cryptic, crooked crawl. Side A consists of consistent live staple “Parallel Wanderer,” a sprawling kosmische bruiser that spills from astral dread to loner deathmarch before dissolving raggedly on a wasted plateau. The B features a trio of songs new and less so, from industrial headbangs (“Universal Migration”) to negative throbs (“Afterburners”). Out of step and out on the ledge. Recorded at Green Machines in East Los Angeles and cut at Dubplates in Berlin. Black vinyl LPs in gloss-finish jackets with blasted orb artwork plus a photocopied insert. Recorded at Green Machines in East Los Angeles. Mastered at Dubplates in Berlin.

”This one is pure darkness—no light, no air, just tortured souls and echoed cries. Three epic droning processionals built from the heaviest, thickest low-end tones. The sound of indentured servants from a scorched dustbowl wasteland. Caveman aesthetic pushed to its limits by recording to eight analog channels”
