Originally released on Tri Angle Records in 2013, ‘Excavation‘ is an album awash with serrated beats and cavernous sub-bass, meshing with the classical drones and ghostly character that has helped define The Haxan Cloak’s sound. ‘Excavation’ finds Bobby Krlic confidently adopting a more minimalist approach to his compositions, experimenting with space and silence without forsaking any of the intensity that made his debut such a powerful statement of intent.
