PYRRHON An Excellent Servant But a Terrible Master [CD]

An Excellent Servant But a Terrible Master is the debut album from current Relapse Records recording artist, NYC-based experimental/tech metal outfit, PYRRHON. PYRRHON formed in 2008 after a chance meeting on a subway platform, and have been honing their increasingly twisted take on the genre ever since. Their debut EP, Fever Kingdoms, was released by The Path Less Traveled Records in October 2010. Initially self-released by the band before being re-released by Selfmadegod Records in 2011, An Excellent Servant But a Terrible Master displays a nightmarish blend of clanging death metal with surreal psychedelic elements, jazz rhythms, and delirious storytelling through 45 minutes of material. The record was recorded by Dan Pilla at Bad Lab Studios in Tabernacle, New Jersey in early 2011, and mastered by Colin Marston (Gorguts, Dysrhythmia, Krallice) at The Thousand Caves Studios in Queens, New York.
