Description
Isis - In the Absence of Truth 2xLP (on Translucent Red Vinyl - 500) (Japanese Press w/Silkscreened Paper Bag, Obi - Hand #'d 371 / 500) (Ltd. to 1,000) (Gatefold Cover) Daymare #09
Japanese pressing of the last Isis record. 500 on Red. 500 on Clear. 600 with the paper bag cover - 300 of /ea color. This is #'d 371, so assuming they #'d the Clear paper bag editions first this is #71 of the Red paper bag copies which would have a number range of 300-600. I seriously have no idea what the 423 number is for? I guess it could be out of all of the 500 Red copies? But I don't know why that wouldn't correspond to the 371? why wouldn't it be 071? No idea.
The band's latest further explores their progressive tendencies, although this time around their approach is more intellectual than emotional. The arrangements are more complex and there's an increased sense of melody. Indeed, what's noticeable after the first listen is that front man Aaron Turner sings more than he barks and the guitars remain cleaner for longer stretches. And when he switches to the tortured howl and the distortion kicks in, Isis remains committed to the lush orchestration. In Absence of Truth is an obvious continuation of the style developed on Oceanic and refined on Panopticon.
