Methra Posts Full "Acolyte" LP Online

"Acolyte," the debut LP by Tucson-based lunatic sludge duo Methra, is now rupturing all in earshot just days ahead of its release on Monday, the 4th of July.

Recorded at Arcane Digital with Ryan Butler (who complained of physical and mental anguish due to the bands' unorthodox recording demands), "Acolyte" is an auditory beast in every way. Drummer Andy Kratzenberg (Godhunter) and guitarist Nick Genitals (Limbless Torso) used only incredibly large speakers to record a behemoth load of sixty-nine guitar tracks on the ten tracks, including 15" and 18" speakers, and a 21" subwoofer.

Issues Battleground Records on behalf of these eccentric cohorts: "You know, I'm not even sure what is going on with this band. It's the weirdest album from the weirdest dudes. I don't ask about the process. I don't want to know. Would you ask Lisa Frank why everything is fluorescent? No. Would you ask Matt Pike where his shirt is? No. No way, man. No way."
