Children Of Mars

After 2013’s acclaimed eponymous debut album, Aidan Baker (Nadja, B/B/S, Whisper Room, Caudal) and Dorian Williamson (Northumbria, Holoscene) follow up with their sophomore effort, Children of Mars. The album picks up where the self-titled debut left off, drawing largely on improvisational soundscapes with Baker relentlessly pounding the drums and Williamson conjuring a wall of sound on his bass. They might be just a duo, but they fill the sound beyond belief. Their exploration of both atmospheric and heavy sounds takes the listener to all kinds of places from doom and drone to ambient and sludge, you’re in for an epically dark ride.
