A formation with alternating members, Guardian Alien materialises at donaufestival as a duo. Band founder and phenomenal drummer Greg Fox (Liturgy, Zs) and electronica and guitar commissary Alexandra Drewchin (Eartheater) merge into a freecore nucleus. Guardian Alien smelts trance elements, Kraut diddle-daddle, and cosmic noises into tribal hell rides with a tick for improvisation. With his customary precision, Fox releases a steaming rataplan of drums, which is shaped by the echoes of Drewchin’s minnesong voice.
