about

"Foisy couldn't have chosen a different mode...Talking about starting from scratch, Prophecy seems like a whole new template for the guitarist who's known to offset his drone with black metal, ambiance and effects grab-bags. Starting with a Neurosis-like guitar dirge with plenty of picking above and around the frets, he quickly shifts into an angular bass riff--and post-Fugazi I don't use the term "angular" lightly--that churns and burns while hand-tom taps and a group of instruments resembles strings takes the lead. Pretty soon the b-riff is a forgotten relic, buried among the other elements and lost, the strings really taking charge and higher, screecher-ier squiggles--which fans of his recent Territories LP will recognize--joining the party. My favorite section is the second side of Side A, where all the recognizable sounds drift away, leaving nothing but dancing, delayed bursts of effects-juice...Prophecy finds a comfort zone, a warm, gooey, loopy one, after a striking introduction and truly justifies its creator as a solo entity to be reckoned with."
--Grant Purdum, Signal to Noise #59 (fall 2010)
