EXHAUST
Exhaust is a bass, drum and tape trio that crashed through various small Montreal venues in a series of semi-controlled explosions during the mid-90s with an early vinyl release on Constellation appearing in 1998 (cst004; issued on CD in 2000).
As other projects began to dominate the players schedules, Exhaust played only sporadically from 99-01, but re-grouped in the summer of 2001 for a short tour and month-long cabin retreat, where their latest album was recorded.
The band is more head-trip than body blow nowadays and has constructed a brilliant downtempo album of concrete/punk experimentation that gestures towards various currents in contemporary electronic music as well.
