"93696" is a sprawling double album that sees Liturgy further refining their distinct sound, incorporating a wider range of influences into their 'abyssal metal' framework. It's a dense, often dissonant, yet compelling work that pushes the boundaries of extreme music.
- The album was developed over a period of intense creative output, with Christiansen working on the material between 2019 and 2022.
- "93696" was recorded and mixed by Andrew Schneider, known for his work with artists like Daughters and Lingua Ignota.
- The album features a notable guest appearance by multi-instrumentalist and composer K. Michelle (of Mamaleh) on several tracks.
Liturgy is the project of Brooklyn-based artist Hunter Christiansen, who has explored a unique strain of experimental music that fuses elements of black metal with avant-garde composition. Christiansen has positioned Liturgy as a vehicle for a philosophy they term 'transcendental luminescence,' seeking to articulate a spiritual dimension through extreme music.
