Agriculture Signs to the Flenser, Announces Oblivion Access Appearance

• by jonathan tuite
• January 24, 2023

Extreme metal often embodies the bleakest aspects of existence, but for Los Angeles-based ecstatic black metal quartet Agriculture, blast beats and howling shrieks evoke joyful profundity.  After meeting at an underground noise show in downtown Los Angeles -- another scene known for its usually cynical perspective -- Kern Haug and Dan Meyer began collaborating, using heavy music to portray overwhelming sublimity rather than crushing darkness. Quickly expanding their personnel, veteran guitarist Richard Chowenhill and bassist/songwriter Leah Levinson now round out the lineup as the band reaches for recursive themes of greater meaning. Together, Agriculture approach their music from a mixed background of improvisation, unconventional composition, and heavy experimentalism, all with the intention of expressing ecstatic emotion. As heard on their EP, The Circle Chant, the band transcends the usual frigid textures of black metal through rich harmonies, with Levinson joining Meyer on vocals to share surprisingly warm screams over Agriculture’s intense but celebratory instrumentals.  At the heart of it all, Agriculture is after a deep communion with the natural world, their own bodies, and the people around them, staving off the near-constant threat of alienation with their sound. See Agriculture perform at this year's Oblivion Access festival in Austin alongside label mates Have A Nice Life, Chat Pile, Planning for Burial, Mamaleek, Bosse-de-Nage, Drowse, Sprain, and Ragana for a special Flenser showcase. 

Listen to the bands self-released EP The Circle Chant.

To begin to understand the restorative power of the band Agriculture , it helps to start in the “Inventions” section of the online Wiki for Calvin and Hobbes . That’s where you’ll find a detailed description of the Transmogrifier, an upside-down cardboard box that the classic comic strip’s young protagonist, Calvin, used to morph into other creatures…in his imagination, of course. For guitarist and vocalist Dan Meyer, Agriculture has a similar effect—except it’s real.

“I think the perspective we’re sharing is that there is joy to be found, even in the experience of feeling really shitty,” he says. “If we get to a gig and one of us is in a mood or feeling sick or whatever, just embracing that and bringing that whole self to the stage and sharing that with people, it kind of has this, like—it’s like the Transmogrifier box. You put a shitty feeling in there, and it comes out white hot with some good feelings.”

Welcome to the unorthodox world of Agriculture, a Los Angeles quartet that eschews the murky malevolence long associated with black metal in favor of expressing “feelings of absolute bliss, overwhelming love, and awe-inspiring sublimity” through extreme music. They call it ecstatic black metal—a term that has drawn both curious ears and skeptical side-eyes from a corner of the musical universe where debate about what’s kvlt and what’s not kvlt still happens in earnest.

“We didn’t set out, like, ‘OK, we’re going to make fucking ecstatic music,’” Meyer says. “It was more like, ‘Oh, that’s actually how it feels to play these songs.’ The intention is definitely to make people feel good, though.”

So far, it’s working. In 2022, Agriculture’s debut EP, The Circle Chant , established them as a promising act with all the typical tools of black metal—blast beats, tremolo-picked guitars, shredded howls—plus a fondness for unexpected elements like pedal steel guitar, organ, and saxophone. After signing to influential dark-music record label The Flenser , the band released a self-titled full-length last year that offered more of the same: Skyscraping melodic black metal, augmented by stretches of ambient twang, skronky free jazz, twinkling post-rock, and quiet, raw folk music.

Now, Agriculture is releasing its second EP, Living Is Easy , a four-song collection anchored by a bracing title track, which blends black metal fury with a cheerful melody that unabashedly echoes danceable Irish folk music, and “In the House of Angel Flesh,” a punchy thrash attack built around reflections on collective struggle, support, healing, and renewal.

“I wanted to write a song that pretty directly focused on themes of queer community and stuff like that,” says bassist, vocalist, and occasional Bandcamp Daily contributor Leah B. Levinson. “We have a lot of young queer people come out to our shows, and that’s something I always really appreciate seeing and something that means a lot to me, so I wanted to find a way to approach that without falling into slogans.”

The band wrote and recorded the new EP with more confidence and a stronger sense of purpose than it had while creating its earlier work, Meyer says. “We wanted to push ourselves to take all of the ideas from the record and put them in a seven-minute song,” he says with a chuckle of “Living Is Easy.” As percussionist Kern Haug recalls: “I’ll never forget, Dan, you texting our group chat and being like, ‘I think I came up with an even more ecstatic music!’ And it was this Irish folk tune-inspired metal song.”

They’re kidding around, but Agriculture is serious about its role not just in exploring the boundaries of black metal, but in pushing and pulling on those boundaries, reshaping the genre, and setting off to explore some more. “That’s something that we’re interested in continuing to redefine,” says guitarist Richard Chowenhill. “I think we pushed this concept of using very traditional tropes of black metal to create a swirling field of good feelings. [ Living Is Easy ] feels like a pretty natural limit for that, and we’re exploring some different territory now.” With new territory comes new ideas, new music, new acclaim, new audiences, and new opportunities. This spring, the band will tour the East cCast of the United States for the first time, then make its inaugural trip to Europe to play the prestigious Roadburn Festival in The Netherlands.

As always, Agriculture is changing. Fortunately, its four members get to navigate those changes together. “You start a band because it’s a fun thing to do, and it’s a way of expressing yourself and getting ideas out and playing shows. And I think we’re in a position right now as a band where it’s shifting, and it becomes less of a hobby and more about finding ways to do things like touring in a way that’s sustainable (because) the economic side of being in a band is no joke,” Meyer says.

“How do you preserve the joy that is the impetus for getting together with not just your band but everybody who comes to see you play?” he continues. “How do you preserve that feeling of, ‘This is a really special part of being a human being.’ These are important questions for a band that’s where we are right now.”

((Agriculture)) Band Profile and Upcoming New York City Concerts - Oh My Rockness

Agriculture.

Written by Patrick McNamara

Agriculture is an extremely heavy (and extremely sick) new band from Los Angeles that plays "ecstatic Black Metal."

I definitely hear the metal. I absolutely hear the joy.

Blast their beautifully brutal (but melodic somehow!) EP below and then get excited for their much anticipated (by me) full-length debut soon via The Flenser .

Most importantly, go see them pummel you with this musical goodness at a stage near you ASAP.

Agriculture announce new/old LP, share “Living Is Easy”

The track is the lead single and half-title track from living is easy / the circle chant , a full-length release fusing four new songs with their 2022 debut ep..

Agriculture have shared plans for an LP titled Living Is Easy / The Circle Chant . Due out May 3 on The Flenser, the album will fuse four new songs ( Living Is Easy ) with the four tracks from their debut EP ( The Circle Chant ) to make a 12-inch vinyl record.

Along with the news, the Los Angeles-based four-piece have shared the title track from side A of the forthcoming project. “Living Is Easy” is seven minutes of guitar-led, white-knuckled “black metal.” Already quite upbeat for its nominal genre, the song explodes into the utter ecstasy Agriculture are constantly seeking near the two-minute mark, a reaction catalyzed by a stadium solo with a melody more fit for a Civil War battlefield than a Metallica concert. As the track continues, the band play a supercharged game of self-oneupmanship, inducing in the listener a state of non-stop catharsis.

Perhaps even more fun than the track itself is its Sam Blakesberg -directed video, in which Agriculture and their recent tour mates Chat Pile start off as the best of road pals but end up visciously murdering each other by the time the dust settles. Watch the clip and stream the track on its own below, followed by the cover art and tracklist for Living Is Easy , as well as Agriculture’s upcoming tour dates.

26 October, 2013   / Russia and China plan to conduct joint development of oil field in Siberia. In Soviet times, Srednebotuobinskoye oil field in Yakutia was the place of at least seven nuclear explosions made to intensify production of oil. Officials deny environmental concerns that this oil may be radioactive. Total reserves of the field are estimated at one billion barrels.

8 January, 2011   / Air temperature of minus 61.2 degrees Celsius was reported last night in Oimyakon settlement in Yakutia Republic, known as the cold pole. Not so cold at all, in 1933 the temperature registered was minus 67.7.

History of Yakutia

According to archaeological studies, ancient people inhabited the Lena River region in the early Paleolithic. A lot of archaeological monuments dated from 300,000 to 10,000 years ago were found. From the middle of the first millennium AD, the ancestors of the Evens and Evenks began to settle here. By the 13th century, the Tungusic tribes settled in the Middle Lena, Viluy, Olekma.

The arrival of the ancestors of the Yakuts or Sakha (endonym) forced them to move to the west and east of the Lena. Livestock development brought major changes in the economic life of the region. The Yakuts brought handicraft production (blacksmithing, jewelry, pottery etc.) and construction of permanent dwellings.

In the first quarter of the 17th century, the Cossacks reached the banks of the Lena River. The fortified settlements of Lensky (Yakutsk), Zhigansk, Verkhoyansk, Zashiversk, Srednekolymsk were founded. They became the advanced posts for Russian colonists, who moved to the northeast Asia.

When Yakutia (the region of the Lena River) joined the Russian state, its main indigenous population were the Yakuts, the most northern in the world sedentary herders, who were engaged in breeding of cattle and horses, hunting, fishing, blacksmithing. They created a wonderful heroic epic - Olonkho, unique material and spiritual culture.

More Historical Facts…

In 1632, Lensky (present Yakutsk) fortified settlement was founded on the right bank of the Lena River. This date is considered to be the date of Yakutia joining the Russian state. In January 1634, a large group of the Yakuts (about 1,000 people) besieged the fort that was defended by about 200 Cossacks, but could not capture it. But they continued to resist the Russian colonization for a long time or moved to remote areas. In 1638, the Yakutsk region was formed.

It became the Yakutsk Governorate in 1775, and Yakutsk Oblast in 1784. In the 18th century, the Christianization of the indigenous population began. Almost from the beginning (the 1640s), Yakutia was used by the Russian authorities as a place of exile. In the 19th century, Yakutia became a place of political exile. Decembrists as well as the participants of the Polish uprising of 1863 and others were exiled here.

In 1917, the population of Yakutsk Oblast was over 264,000 people. About 84% of the population lived in rural areas. Almost the same percentage of the regional population were the Yakuts, 9.5% - Russians, 6.5% - Evenks, Evens, Yukaghir, Chukchi, and others.

In 1922, the Yakutian Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic was formed as part of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic. The Soviet period in the history of Yakutia is associated with large-scale industrial development of its natural resources. In the 1930s, exploitation of the Northern Sea Route began, Tiksi seaport was constructed in the mouth of the Lena River.

In 1939, the population of the region amounted to 413,000 people, 65.5% of the population were the Yakuts, 35.5% - Russians, 3.3% - Evenks and Evens. During the Second World War, more than 63,000 people were drafted into the Red Army, about 35,000 people were killed or gone missing.

In the 1950s, rich diamond deposits were discovered in the west of Yakutia. On September 27, 1990, a new period in the history of Yakutia began, when the declaration of independence of the republic was adopted. In 1991, the republic received a new name - the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia).

Yakutia - Resources and Economy

Today, the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) has a developed mining industry extracting gold, diamonds, oil, natural gas, coal, and various metals. Elkonskoye uranium deposit, the largest in Russia, is located here. Yakutia is also known for its furs and mammoth tusks.

The main industries are non-ferrous metallurgy, mining of diamonds and gold (about 90% of all Russian diamonds and 24% of gold), coal mining, forest and wood processing, light and food industries. The tourism industry is developing rapidly. Agriculture produces milk, meat, vegetables, furs, reindeer.

Most of the cargo is transported by waterways. In the navigation period, the main waterways are the Lena (with its tributaries the Vilyui and Aldan), Yana, Indigirka, and Kolyma. Goods to the northern districts of the republic are delivered by the Northern Sea Route.

In 2008, the federal highway “Kolyma” (Yakutsk-Magadan) was opened for year-round exploitation. Due to the low number of roads, air transport is relatively well developed. There are more than 30 airports in the republic.

Attractions of Yakutia

Yakutia is one of the rare places on our planet with preserved primeval nature and an amazing variety of flora and fauna. The Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) has over 30% of Russian wildlife. More than 90% of the territory is unaffected or slightly affected by industrial development.

The main attractions of Yakutia are:

Kisilyakh Mount (“stone people” in the Yakut language) is known for its picturesque piles of stones resembling blurry silhouettes of people.

Lena and Sinskiye Pillars - two series of steep, vertical cliffs located 200 km from Yakutsk, on the banks of the Lena and Sinyaya rivers. These rocks have different fancy shapes: columns, spiers and towers. Many of them have traces of ancient rock paintings.

Memorial Museum “Yakutsk political exile” in the village of Cherkyokh - an open-air museum that includes two dozen objects. The main purpose of the museum is to demonstrate how Russian culture, brought to Yakutia by political exiles, affected the lives of local people.
