about

Six Six is the Washington, DC duo of Anthony Pirog (The Messthetics) and Luke Stewart (Irreversible Entanglements, Blacks' Myths). Their long-awaited recorded collaboration delivers two slabs of serenity and storm.

On the band’s self-titled debut, Pirog (guitar, effects) and Stewart (bass, effects) showcase their full range, pushing their unique improvisational language forward to find new spaces and sounds that deliver something both heavy and hypnotic. "Before" is an exploratory meditation that unfolds subtly from movement to movement. As sound baths go, “Before” rewards repeated listens as subtle tones, loops, and layers combine and morph but never feel stale. "After" begins with a bang as it initially orbits the outer regions -- tones, pulses, and loops now feel tense and Pirog and Stewart layer their instruments to build the suspense. The track shifts shapes and evolves, maintaining a connection to the duo’s improvisational chops and need to seek.

Six Six.
Before and After.

My vinyl copy contains the audio from Vol. 1, not Vol. 2. I’ve messaged Astral Spirits multiple times about this mispressing, but they have not responded. Be wary of buying the vinyl version unless you want the wrong audio. Ben
