In Liturgy, Zs, Guardian Alien and any number of projects, Greg Fox breathes in his drums and exhales rumbling, monstrous, hypnotic rhythms. His new duo with the modular-synth player Ryan Soper buzzes and whirs and explodes like Sun Ra leading a psychotropic industrial punk band.

Soper does double duty as the video artist for the whirring "I." Ice mountains dissolve in a furious blizzard of sharp-edged geometric shapes and melted faces (both imagined and of the duo themselves) as next-dimensional eyes open portals to neon realms.

Magenta Line comes out May 27 on NNA and Bandcamp.
