An initial bout of musical experimentation in the fall of 1997 is attended by favorable circumstances and results in the formation of Isis. Following acclaimed full-lengths Celestial, Oceanic, and Panopticon, In the Absence of Truth is their fourth and most challenging LP to date.
Reviews:
Like 2004's Panopticon and 2002's Oceanic before it, Truth runs an artful gamut from lush astral ambience to primitive, harrowing ferocity. You can trip out and incur whiplash to it simultaneously, or just chill and read the cool lit list it's based on: House of Leaves, Don Quixote, Labyrinths and The Last Days of Hitler.
