Mark Deutrom - The Value Of Decay - DOUBLE LP GATEFOLD + Digital

Black 12" heavy weight double vinyl (180g @ 33 rpm) including bonus track "Dim Candle" in deluxe gatefold sleeve printed on the reverse board side. First pressing 300 copies worldwide.

The true treasure of former MELVINS bass player MARK DEUTROM's artistic expression lies in his wide-ranging and genre transcending solo recordings. His sophomore full-length, 'The Value of Decay' (2011) underlines the multi-instrumentalist's broad musical scope; for example by successfully fusing blues rock and super-heavy sludge on the epic track "Making a Killing" or with the striking contrast between the ten-ton Southern fried guitar fuzz of "Buried in the Jewel" and the psychedelic zero-G ambient of the final part of closing song "Empire Sands".
