Our Love Will Destroy The World, Richard Francis and Cross Talk

“Operating under the name Birchville Cat Motel for more than a decade, New Zealand’s Campbell Kneale (Our Love Will Destroy The World) has mapped a formidable, boundless body of drone. Across the course of his innumerable available (and hopelessly unavailable) recordings, Kneale has crafted his various free-form creations with an uncommon patience and a painterly eye for detail, resulting in a catalog that veers dramatically from austere electronic flutter to ferocious scorched-earth noise.” – Pitchfork
