about

The Minneapolis trio LAND was active from around 2012-2014, comprised of Graham Baldwin (guitar), Jason Millard (bass) and Matthew Himes (drums).

Heavy but mellow, melodic, and circular, the music focuses simultaneously on restraint and expansion. The vibrations are heavy, compressing into a smooth, reflective surface.

Over the band's history, the group released this "II" EP, and the full-length album "The Container", both on Lighten Up Sounds, along with several undocumented micro-run lathe cut records of various shapes and sizes. The lathe-cuts were produced and manufactured by Graham Baldwin and his 2208 Records label and lathe-cutting production house, which was quite active in that period.

The "II" cassette was produced in a small run of 25 copies, to be distributed locally at a live performance of the group in concert.



Original description:

"Fresh new cassette EP of minimal doom psych from this Minneapolis power trio. Heavy and swirling caveman rock structures dissolve and turn to smoke. Features members of Myrrh and Visitor. Soundtrack for zero visibility navigation through deep fog bank."
