The group started their life as a heavy bass\/drums duo playing post-hardcore, noisy rock, but in the two decades since, they have expanded their instrumentation and their stylistic references to become one of Europe's most highly respected 'muscular and modern' experimental\/progressive rock bands. The album's 43 minute long track is a dynamic, fluid beast that takes the listener on a scenic journey through loud New York minimalism, celestial drones, avant rock, kosmiche-noise, rockin' riffs and way beyond. Centered around founding member and extraordinary drummer David J. Smith, the group on the album also features three additional heavy-weights of British experimental rock: Kavus Torabi : guitar (also of Knifeworld, Cardiacs, Gong) Emmett Elvin : keyboards (also of Chrome Hoof, Knifeworld) James Sedwards : bass (also of Thurston Moore Baand, Chrome Hoof)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Obscure Knowledge I Guapo 25:39 \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Obscure Knowledge II Guapo 04:38 \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Obscure Knowledge III Guapo 12:39\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
