Largely recognized as their breakthrough album, Khanate was confident
enough by the two-song, forty-minute Capture & Release (2005) to peel back its
layers of thick mossy droneand reveal the minimalist underpinnings, a change
either interpreted as maturity or an implied threat. “It’s a grim, avant-garde
exercise in tension and paranoia. Dense, leaden drones fill up the spaces between
O’Malley’s sparse, deeply sustained guitar chords.
Vocalist Alan Dubin’s anguished vocals seem to convey the tortures of the
damned as if there were not a shred of hope left for existence in this world.
Capture & Release is not dissimilar to black metal in how it so violently conveys
such a bleak and ultra-nihilistic world outlook. But while the standard tempo
on a black metal album typically strays into the triple digits in terms of beats per
minute, Khanate’s plodding pace keeps the BPM soundly within the single-
digit range.” (Tiny Mix Tapes).
We exclusively sell officially licensed merchandise. All of our products are either licensed from the artist / record label directly or sourced from official partners.
Vinyl Orders - Please note that we do our best to protect vinyl records ideally for shipping, using our custom made mailers and additional cardboard squares. However, we can not guarantee that no damage on the way occurs. Ordering is at one's own risk. Vinyl might be delivered unsealed as we have to open copies to check vinyl colours, if not sufficiently labeled by the distributor / label.
Product Images - Please note that most of the images in our store are not actual photos but mock ups. These mock ups are digital representations of what we expect the final product to look like - however they do not represent the final product. Final vinyl pressings, prints, etc. may look slightly different.
