About
The San Francisco duo Barn Owl specializes in sprawling, art-damaged instrumental rock that creeps along at unsettlingly slow tempos. Though its work can create striking atmospheres of unease and dread, it's not as doomstruck as Sunn O)))'s scorched-earth drone, nor as theatrical as the apocalyptic instrumentals of Godspeed You! Black Emperor. Rather, Barn Owl aims for a kind of slow-motion detachment that invests even its most violent compositions with a sense of sublime contemplativeness. On <i>Lost in the Glare</i>, Barn Owl has begun to rein in the wilder improv tendencies that characterized early releases like <i>The Conjurer</i> in favor of more tightly structured compositions that never breach the 10-minute mark. Though this makes for slightly less trance-inducing listening, it also allows for greater stylistic variety. On <i>Lost in the Glare</i>, Barn Owl expands its palette, particularly on the near-ambient track “The Darkest Night Since 1683,” whose relentless waves of overdubbed distortion make it the heaviest thing the duo has yet released.
