Dins

"A fine sound, a young sound, a sound you should get to know today."- Byron Coley The Wire. The full length debut from incendiary ensemble which takes the band well beyond their astounding live dynamic of guitar theatrics and poly-rhythmic madness seamlessly blends non-traditional instrumentation and studio improvisation.

Din's is the first proper full length release from Psychic Ills, a band which took shape in NYC during the late days of 2003. Their first foray into the public ear came via a self released 7" bearing the title "Mental Violence I"; two tracks of drum machines, vocals and guitars which pushed and tugged at the senses with an undeniable sense of urgency. They followed it with another limited edition vinyl only release; a Twelve Inch EP bearing the title "Mental Violence II: Diamond City" which contained three more sonic explorations, a remix by Sonic Boom and served as the prerecorded debut of the four-piece incarnation. Dins plays like a revelation of sorts and was recorded by Charles Burst who has worked with bands such as Black Dice, Gang Gang Dance and The Double. With a long string of bombastic performances behind them Psychic Ills entered the studio ready
to create a record out of the incendiary compositions they had been perfecting. The result takes the band well beyond their astounding live dynamic of circular rhythm and guitar theatrics as they seamlessly blend non-traditional instrumentation and studio improvisation with a surging rock dynamic into an incredibly heavy debut.
