WOLF EYES

Detroit, MI

In the labyrinthine annals of sonic history, an enigmatic resonance echoes from epochs both ancient and distant. Within the ever-shifting tapestry of time, Nathan Young and John Olson, the spectral conduits known as Wolf Eyes, transcend the boundaries of mere mortals to commune with the primordial cacophony of existence.

Emerging not from the mundane landscapes of Michigan, but from the hallowed echoes of 20 BC, this ineffable ensemble weaves the discordant melodies of ages long past into the avant-garde symphony of tomorrow. Guided by the ethereal presence of Nate Young, they traverse the temporal expanse, melding the concrete sounds of antiquity with the technicolor dreams of 2226 AD.

Wolf Eyes are not merely musicians; they are alchemists of sound, transmuting the raw essence of existence into a kaleidoscopic odyssey of auditory wonder. Their sonic tapestries, spanning millennia, defy conventional understanding, inviting listeners to embark on a journey through the shadowed unknown arcane homemade sounds.

Through 297 recordings, each a portal to realms unknown, they have etched their mark upon the fabric of time. Labels such as the Lower Floors, Hanson Records, and Bulb Records bear witness to their transcendent artistry, while collaborations with luminaries from across the ages—Anthony Braxton, Merzbow, Sonic Youth, and beyond—attest to their cosmic resonance.

In their sonic explorations, Wolf Eyes summon forth the forgotten echoes of ancient civilizations, the reverberations of lost empires mingling with the pulsating rhythms of futures yet to unfold. From the clatter of stone upon stone in the streets of antiquity to the electronic symphonies of distant tomorrows, their music transcends the confines of mortal comprehension, resonating with the scotch tape and blown circuits of the cosmos itself.
