Spiral/Athletics by Extra

Howard Stelzer and Brian Grainger are Extra. 'Spiral/Athletics,' Extra's third album, was made manifest in 2022-2023. It continues to tangentially expand on the band's previous published work, with a colorful and dense array of textural cassette sound, field recordings, drone music and modular synthesis - headphones are suggested.

It is available here for digital purchase, and available exclusively from Love Earth Music as a physical factory-pressed CD edition with a gatefold, with wonderful design and layout work by Joe Bastardo. https://www.loveearthmusic.com

The band's debut release was 'Draw/Orb' issued at Finlay Shakespeare's GOTO imprint in England, as a digital-only release: https://gotorecords.bandcamp.com/album/draw-orb

'Hard/Rainbow' is the band's second album, available exclusively from Extra's vanity label 'and so on' as a digital release and a limited edition CD-R - https://textslashtext.bandcamp.com/album/hard-rainbow-2

Please enjoy, and so on.
