R.Y.N. Archaic Techniques of Ecstasy LP

First LP for the glorious power-drone band from U.K.; comes in a great ornamental LP-sleeve (silk-screened) with diverse inlays & printed inner covers; numbered ed. 233 copies, 180gr. black vinyl. "The English based R.Y.N. were initially formed a couple of years ago as Goathanger. Realising that this acronym probably wasn't going to make them famous plus the fact that original member Mendez left, the remaining members Burn and Glaister re-christened themselves R.Y.N. in 2003. Over the next couple of years they worked on their debut CD Cosmic Birth (for Turgid Animal records). Their second album Astral Death was released early 2008 (for Unrest records) and these titles should give you some indication of their music. Manipulating sound (often guitars and bass) into an unrecognizable sonic texture is what R.Y.N. are good at. This new album is no exception, but sounds considerably bleaker than their earlier efforts. EQUATION RECORDS
