Undertow

*Undertow *finds Detroit noise trio Wolf Eyes a bit tamer than usual, as they apply a wrecking ball to the spacious frameworks of world music, ambient, and even reggae.

After an unexpected dalliance with Jack White's Third Man Records, Michigan's Wolf Eyes (the official kings of trip metal) kicked off their Lower Floor Music imprint with their 2017 full-length Undertow.

With Undertow, Michigan lifers Wolf Eyes turn in their best in a decade, scraping off past aural gunk to reveal an icy unease owing as much to Terje Rypdal and Ligeti as to their cornerstone industrial forebears.

Wolf Eyes have proven themselves to be a unique voice in the noise-rock landscape.
