about

Art As Catharsis are proud to announce ‘Repeater Station’, the new single from Joseph Rabjohns & Lachlan R. Dale.

Opening with a shimmering soundscape, and building to a pulsating post-rock crescendo, Repeater Station puts a spotlight on the unique musical relationship between guitarists Joseph Rabjohns (Kodiak Empire) and Lachlan R. Dale (Hashshashin).

Off the back of their split LP Eclipsing // Orbs, Joe and Lachlan traveled deep into the ancient Gondwana rainforests of Springbrook. There among the towering old growth trees, they spent four days improvising to create the foundation of a new musical partnership. Repeater Station came from this session fully formed from the first take, with no prior planning.

“To me this track reminds me of the damp air and filtered light of the rainforest”, says Lachlan. “It’s heavy with the atmosphere of Springbrook, which felt like such a reprieve after coming down with COVID and spending Christmas locked in my small music room.”

In parts Repeater Station gives faint echoes of This Will Destroy You’s self-titled album - but it’s also utterly unique, pairing Joe’s articulate fingerpicking against Lachlan’s effected guitar that hovers like an ethereal string section above the main melody. It’s an enticing glimpse of things to come in this rich musical partnership.

Joseph Rabjohns & Lachlan R. Dale’s new single Repeater Station is out now on Art As Catharsis, and available on all platforms.

Such a well done album, onto my second playthrough right now which is such a rewarding listen due to the rich sound coming from the mix but also the large selection of instruments used, which all have their spots throughout the album to shine. It's further impressive the consistent style and sound the album has considering the amount of people involved in the making of this who all have a long history of their own musical accomplishments and sound. ozzybeckett

This album so perfectly captures the wall of noise sound that I was amazingly surprised when I first heard it. That being said though, there are perfectly amazing periods of calm drone that break it up and make it almost this perfect mixture. clouddasher
