Deafheaven’s George Clarke, Dana Wachs Share 20-Minute New Song: Listen

[NelsonG]

Deafheaven’s George Clarke has teamed-up with Dana Wachs (Vorhees) for “RVIII: Invocation.” It’s a 20-minute ambient track for the performance art piece Rural Violence III (Rebirth) by former Pitchfork editor Brandon Stosuy. Stream the track below. It’s loosely based on the 1998 Matthew Shepard incident, and proceeds from the release will be donated to the Matthew Shepard Foundation, which “focuses on LGBTQ rights and youth awareness.” Support the cause on the Wachs & Clarke Bandcamp page. Rural Violence III (Rebirth) is taking place August 6 in Wyoming at a location that will be disclosed upon RSVP. It’s also set to feature Angel Deradoorian, Prurient, works by Matthew Barney, and more.
