Description
Michigan's **Wolf Eyes** are an institution within the American experimental music underground, constantly exploring new paths and pushing the boundaries of music and sound art. While most commonly categorized as a noise band, their always uncompromising work has ranged from rhythmic bangers approximating mutated industrial and broken electro to free-form improvisation sessions rooted in avant-garde jazz and modern composition. The fiercely D.I.Y. unit has released countless handmade recordings on their own imprints, making it nearly impossible to keep track of their entire discography, particularly when one takes into account side projects and solo monikers. Constant touring in the early 2000s brought the group a strong cult fan base and opened the hermetic world of the noise underground to a new generation of curious indie rockers, punks, and experimentalists. Early releases like 2001's Dread and Slicer earned acclaim, leading to releases on , including 2004's Burned Mind, simultaneously one of their harshest and most accessible recordings. The group collaborated with major avant-garde figures like , , and , and released one of their defining statements with 2013's No Answer: Lower Floors. I Am a Problem: Mind in Pieces, a 2015 effort for , touched on psychedelic rock influences. 2023's Difficult Messages compiled tracks from the group's myriad collaborative projects, while Dreams in Splattered Lines (released the same year) found the core duo of the band collaging together layers of abstract electronics, freeform woodwinds, and miscelaneous ephermeral sounds.
