THISQUIETARMY 'Anthems For Catharsis'

'Anthems For Catharsis' marks the follow-up to THISQUIETARMY's last full-length studio works 'Rebirths', a representative collection of reworked tracks that have defined his purgative live performances. Within the repetitive genre of ambient and drone, THISQUIETARMY constantly evolves and tries to incorporate new additional textures and structures into the music - for instance, think of the kraut rock shoegaze of 'Resurgence', or the post-rock doom of 'Hex Mountains'. However, in other to start fresh and shed skin from exhaustive influences, Quach strips his music down to the black bones. 'Anthems for Catharsis' sounds very focused but also very very dark, not unlike a ritual cleansing or detoxification. In dismantling his sound, THISQUIETARMY almost struck a black metal vein, resulting in a dark and brooding ice-cold oozing of his signature drones.
