ACOLYTES
RUPTURE

Departing from the band based setup of previous releases, Acolytes continue their exploration of loop based paradigms with Rupture. The release expands upon the murky jarring patchwork asthetic of the 2012 re/lease, replacing brooding song structures with a more driving, visceral and relentless sound.
