American heavy stoner doom duo Eagle Twin are streaming a new track titled “Horn Vs. Halo” from their split release Legends of the Desert: Volume 4 with The Otolith. The song is the latest material from Eagle Twin since their last album The Thundering Heard released six years ago.
Listen to the song here.
Singer/guitarist Gentry Densley shares his thoughts:
“Well, a lot of it comes from ‘the riff’ and the whole tradition of ‘the riff.’ It’s something that I’ve become more conscious of—from Page and Iommi, down through people like Wino—the whole idea of people channelling “the riff.’ I’m also interested in myths and mythology and the creation of myths, the scale of the universal consciousness and how these same stories pop up over the years—the whole idea of collective memory and looking at riffs the same way, the real language of “the riff.’ I also wanted to do more storytelling, so there are probably influences from a lot of blues artists and also a lot of Mahavishnu influences; harmonically, I just started thinking about putting some more of that in, and there are elements of fusion jazz as well.”
Legends of the Desert: Volume 4 will be released on September 20 through Desert Records.
