‘Into this Juvenile Apocalypse our Golden Blood to Pour Let Us Never’ is the third collaborative album between trio SUMAC - Aaron Turner (guitar- ISIS, Old Man Gloom), Brian Cook (bass - Russian Circles), NickYacyshyn (drums - Baptists) - and Japan’s cultural provocateur, KeijiHaino.
‘Into this Juvenile Apocalypse our Golden Blood to Pour Let Us Never’finds the quartet navigating the push-and-pull of creative interplay with bolder strides and stronger chemistry. Recorded on May 21, 2019, at the Astoria Hotel on Vancouver BC’s notorious East Hastings Street as a one-off performance during a short North American tour for Haino, the six compositions comprising ‘Into this Juvenile Apocalypse our Golden Blood to Pour Let Us Never’ showcase a musical unit bouncing unfiltered ideas off of one another, mining a trove of textures and timbres from their armoury to buoy and bolster these living and breathing pieces. Like so many albums documenting free music, the thrill here is in the tight ropewalk, the wavering moments of uncertainty, and the ecstatic moments of shared brilliance.
Whether deconstructing American blues, to a few rogue notes hanging a cross chasms of empty space in his solo endeavors, sparring with the nebulous fringes of psychedelia in Fushitsusha, or teaming up withmusicians like Faust, Boris, Jim O’Rourke, Stephen O’Malley, John Zorn,and Peter Brötzmann for fleeting aural experiments, Haino’s work isnever pre-planned or structured, but rather a completely spontaneousexploration of chemistry, texture, and dynamics.
SUMAC’s tenure is much younger than Haino’s, though guitarist-vocalistAaron Turner has covered a similarly large swath of musical territoryacross numerous projects and collaborations.
“If Haino is Hendrix caterwauling through the multiverse, Sumac are the Experience bringing him back into our atmosphere, burning without disintegrating.” - Pitchfork
