»Cloud Sculptors« is the debut album of the experimental Oslo based rock-quintet Full Earth. Full Earth is the latest psychedelic wunderkind from the far north. Headed by and centered around composer and drummer Ingvald Vassbø (best known for his stellar drumming in Kanaan, now also playing with Motorpsycho), the group is rounded out by the other two members of Kanaan as well as two new associates. Full Earth creates entrancing organ and synth-laden soundscapes anchored by tight rhythmic grooves. As arpeggiated keys pass and interlock with one another, a compelling and hypnotic picture reveals itself to the listener gradually.

With a deep connection and love for minimalist music, especially that of Terry Riley’s organ works, heavy stoner rock ala Sleep, High on Fire and Elder and the electronic avant-garde, the Full Earthsphere circles in on fuzzed out riffs, sonic experimentalism and noise music.

»Cloud Sculptors«, which is a kind of abstract, mythological and psychedelic account, consists of six thoroughly composed and extensively produced tracks. Four of them are long-form, instrumental, fuzz-heavy and sludgy compositions stretching towards the 20-minute mark. »Echo Tears« and »Weltgeist« are two shorter organ compositions inspired by James Ferraro, Onehotrix Point Nevers and Györgi Ligeti’s genius contributions to musical history.

On Full Earth’s debut album, the inspirations and references coalesce in a wholesome, truly progressive and vital way. The 84-minute album, »Cloud Sculptors«, is released on Stickman Records on the 15th of March 2024.
