T

his quartet’s self-titled debut conjures images of Metal Box-era Johnny Lydon fronting Savage Republic or
Explosions in the Sky. Cascading guitars build into the most beautiful pop epiphanies, as though the Edge
were leading a modern day Popol Vuh up the mountain before us.

Wilderness’s debut is the culmination of three years steady work by four dear friends. Their songs touch on numer-
ous themes like living through the end of capitalism, the beauty inherent in beauty, staring at the sky, listening to the
woods, feeling the landfills topple and swell, vibrations in the market place, collective brain harvesting and the abso-
lute falling all around the opinionated as the opinionated fall all around the absolute. The record is about your per-
ception. It is ultimately a celebration of life that serves as an impetus to stand in a place and aim music towards itself.

The four human beings that comprise Wilderness have been making art and music, living and travelling together for
over 10 years. They live and work in Baltimore, USA. Their debut full-length was recorded, mixed and mastered in
May and June of 2004, by Chad Clark and T.J. Lipple at Silver Sonya, in Arlington, Virginia.
