CloseEarth, the pioneering project of Dylan Carlson, laid the groundwork for drone metal with their very first release, 1991’s Extra-Capsular Extraction - a three-track EP that features Kurt Cobain on “A Bureaucratic Desire for Revenge, Part 2.” A cornerstone of heavy minimalism and sludge, this debut marks the arrival of the genre’s original pre-drone gods.
Reissued for the first time in 20 years and pressed on colour vinyl.
