i bought this abum (on cd unfortunately) at Amoeba Records in San Francisco. I didn't know what to expect from it, but it seemed daunting, only three tracks, all of them over 15 minutes... I had no idea what I was getting into.
When I got around to listening to it, I kept waiting for the songs to start, but wasn't bothered that they never did. The massive, heavy distortion basically had me hypnotized.
I can't defend Earth 2 as great 'music' but it kept my jaw on the floor the whole time by doing so much with so little (stylistically thay is) and to me that's the mark of any great piece of art, music or otherwise.
This and domkirke are sort of neck and neck for my favorite drone album
