KHANATE
No Joy (remix)/Dead
LOAD 049**12"
release date June 9 2003
Its been said about KHANATE before that "slow is the new loud" (Julian Cope actually). This being true, Khanate's sound is a deafening roar. A small nuclear bomb in the swimming pool as you sip an ice tea. Take the brutal slow dynamics of EYEHATEGOD or EARTH and add a chilly macabre menace and then you have a good start on where this record will leave you. Members in the band are in bands such as BURNING WITCH, SUNN O)))), ATOMSMASHER, SCORN, OLD and BLIND IDIOT GOD.
This record is a remix 12" record, though not in the usual sense bandied about by skinny tie wearing fools. The 12" remix adds some thick squall to a song, "No Joy" off their first record (SOUTHERN LORD). It comes off as a dense and oppressive crush that fits comfortably into the post-nuclear universe of the LOAD RECORDS sound, but also into the afterworld metallic funhouse of KHANATE. James Plotkin administers mixes on both sides. The song on the second side, "Dead" is from the same session as the recording for the new record due this year on SOUTHERN LORD. You are barely ready.
SONG TITLES:
1. No Joy (remix)
2. Dead (mp3 preview: http://www.loadrecords.com/sound/khanate_dead.mp3 )
