On the band's 3rd release, 'Slow and Gold' the group rises from the murk of "Dark Water," and fiercely rips a jagged hole through the sky with the intro track "Silver Lightning." Standard song structure takes a back seat to a loping, frenetic riff made solid by Gruber and Hess with their distinctive twin Les Paul assault. Artillery shell bombast drumming by Duncan Black, Zack Busby's sinewy fuzz bass, and Hess' slithering high to wary romantic low give the track a lupine propulsion. Recorded at Modern Electric Sound Recorders by Jeffrey Saenz, "Slow and Gold" marks Descender's first studio release without the band's trademark DIY approach to recording... and with very few layers, the 5 songs gave Derek Taylor plenty of space to mix and master a raw, cohesive sonic wall of 4 guys in a room banging the hell out of their instruments. "Slow and Gold" will be available in late July on vinyl and digital. Look for it on Idol Records.

Exclusive cover art from James O'Barr, artist and creator of The Crow.

Split vinyl release on Idol Records containing new 5 song EP releases from Here Holy Spain and Descender.
