     EARTH (Southern Lord)
     
     
     
     Dylan Carlson founded the band in 1989 along with Slim Moon and Greg Babior, taking the title "Earth" from Black Sabbath's original name. Carlson has remained the core of the band's line-up throughout its changes. Outside of the underground music world, Carlson is perhaps best known for having been a close friend of grunge icon Kurt Cobain, as well as the person who purchased the gun that Cobain later used to commit suicide. After Earth had moved to Seattle, Cobain sang lead vocals in the song "Divine and Bright", from a demo included on the re-release of the live album Sunn Amps and Smashed Guitars.
     
     The drone doom band Sunn O))), who formed as a tribute to Earth, were named after their collective amplifiers of choice, Sunn. Sunn O))) also has a song entitled "Dylan Carlson" on its demo. The drone doom supergroup Teeth of Lions Rule the Divine are named after the second song from Earth's first full-length album, Earth 2: Special Low-Frequency Version.
     
     The album Angels of Darkness, Demons of Light II is scheduled to be released in early 2012.
     
     The second half of the Angels of Darkness/Demons of Light is at hand and earth are ready to unveil it on the highways and byways of the UK and EU. Recorded in the same 2 week session as produced the first part, Angels of Darkness/Demons of Light II carries on in the freely improvised/folkloric vein of the title track from the last release. Tape was rolled and spontaneous composition occurred. The line-up again consists of Adrienne Davies on drums and percussion(on this release there is more percussion of all sorts), Lori Goldston returns on cello, and Karl Blau plays bass. This marks the first time the band on the record has toured outside of the US west coast in preparation for the album. It again has amazing artwork by Stacey Rozich. Many reviewers have found this half more hopeful and less dark and death oriented than previous work. Song titles include 'sigil of brass', 'his teeth did brightly shine', 'multiplicity of doors' (a waltz!), 'the corascene dog', and 'the rakehell' ( a completely unanticipated direction for earth on this album). The next year will see much touring from earth and some startling solo endeavours from Dylan Carlson.
