about

The eighth fully-live documentation of the descended masters of "blackened heavy mettā", INTRINSIC LIGHT.

This release is the entirety of INTRINSIC LIGHT's live performance at the Yarra Hotel, which took place on the 19th of October, 2017.

Recorded by ZEN TAIT.
Mastered/mixed by A DEMON SHEEN.

Special thanks to Shane Van Den Akker for curatorial awesomeness.

The artwork symbolises the Dark Moon - for some metamagical synchromystical reason, INTRINSIC LIGHT gigs nearly always occur on new moon nights... perhaps it is on these darkest of nights that the world most needs a little Light?

Note: as the band constantly weaves heavily improvised psychedelia around their distorted drone brutality, the live versions of the songs presented here are probably quite different to the versions that appear on previous releases. The pieces "Expect Nothing" and "Appreciate It All" were created completely spontaneously.

No Trend, No Mosh, No Attachment, No Aversion!
