"Drain" by VORHEX ANGEL

from $11.98

If the group’s two live releases and debut Heavenly are visceral (Raven Sings the Blues did name them “heirs to the maelstrom of High Rise”), then followup Drain stands in contrast as their cerebral offering. The sprawling experimental double album’s seven tracks guide the listener from morning to night with larger than life guitar solos, spaced-out drone excursions, and moments of potent intensity throughout. For the first time, we see Vorhex Angel trade their pummeling sonic onslaught for moody, dramatic pastures. The band—revealed to be brothers Jake and Jamin Orrall of JEFF the Brotherhood and Silver Synthetic’s Kunal Prakash—push the parameters of the Vorhex Angel concept outward, inviting new players into their circle, adding more risk and generating more reward. “Drain is not in-the-background cooking-type music,” warns Kunal, before winking: “Maybe it is for particularly adventurous chefs.”
