VIDEO OF THE DAY — THIS WILL DESTROY YOU: “BLACK DUNES”

11
Feb/12

Following their appearance at the Ecstatic Music Festival on February 9 at Merkin Concert Hall, Texas experimental droners This Will Destroy You are hanging around for a few more days, playing with Amen Dunes at the Stevens Institute Babbio Atrium on Saturday afternoon in Hoboken, then trekking over to Brooklyn for a just-announced show at 285 Kent later that night with Wires Under Tension ($8, 8:00). Featuring Jeremy Galindo and Chris King on guitars, Donovan Jones on bass and keyboards, and Alex Bhore on drums, TWDY play long, atmospheric instrumentals, which can be found on their 2008 eponymous debut and their 2011 sophomore effort, Tunnel Blanket (Suicide Squeeze), which ranges from the brief “Osario,” clocking in at a mere 2:40, to the 6:33 “Killed the Lord, Left for the New World,” the 8:13 “Communal Blood,” and the 12-minute-plus epic “Little Smoke,” as well as “Black Dunes” (8:16), the ghostly new video of which appears above. While the band’s music might not quite destroy you, it will take you on one far-out, intense sonic adventure.
