Artists discuss the 13 records that shaped their lives

13.

I’ve never heard their other records, but on this one they come close to Godflesh or Swans. It’s a record which blends these two bands, with a heavy doom metal sound, deep in reverb with lots of piercing highs (a kind of an obsession of mine). I love the production and the way the tape saturates. It brings me to Khanate or Toadliquor, too, which I could have selected as well. Their records sound like nothing else in extreme metal – so hateful and wicked. Body Of Light is clearly a record I can’t do without these days.
