II by Shem

On their sophomore album - aptly named "II" - Shem continue their research mission into the deep field of sonic improvisations, following up "The Hill AC" with a 40 minute journey into cosmic abysses, across obscured nightscapes and into the vastness of space.

Keeping up the momentum with a constant motorik groove, Shem explore both moments of atmospheric calmth and distorted maelstroms of psychedelic bliss, offering the listener a gateway to descend into their realm of musical experimentations once again.

"II" displays the next step in a continuous creative process, and we hope you enjoy delving into these soundscapes as much as we enjoyed creating them!
