Thou - Summit
Thou is a forward thinking metal/punk band from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Through constant output they’ve attained prolific status, having released nearly forty genre bending records on labels like Gilead Media, Thrill Jockey, and Robotic Empire. Each one blurring the sub-genre lines that define the sludge, noise, metal, and experimental music worlds.
This reissue of Summit, the band's celebrated 3rd album, comes as a 2xLP with new and expanded artwork and includes the original Summit LP, plus the material from The Archer and The Owle 12-inch. It is packaged in a old-style tip-on jacket, matte finishe with a spot UV gloss print and red flooded inner pockets. It also includes a 16-pag3e 11"x11" booklet.
"This record is dedicated to everyone who refuses to surrender their ideals to a concept of reality that is nothing more than defeatist pragmatism. Those standards which ring true to the very fibers of our beings must be maintained or they will never be realized."
