SUUUUUUUPER happy to be releasing ‘Rewilding’ today. This album of mine has been a long time coming and seeing it out in the wild (no pun intended) is glorious. It’s all here : thomasragsdalemusic.bandcamp.com/album/rewild...
Also, Happy Bandcamp Friday!

Our album has found its way onto some Album of the Year lists!! Thank you all, especially @thelineofbestfit.com and @louderthanwar.bsky.social , for listening and getting behind a couple of belligerent underdog northern chancers.

Proud that Constant Noise got recognised in The Line of Best Fit’s albums of the year. It was an absolute shit to get made, convincing people it was worth making was one thing, getting it over the line was even more difficult. Pure chaos. We’ll take any and every plaudit.

I’m having a new album listening party on Wednesday!
It'll be a listen in advance of Friday’s release and I'll be in the chat to talk about the studio process, influences and why my Yorkshire allotment played a huge part in how all this came out...

See you down the front! Black Friday for punks, misfits, the avant-garde wanderers, the heads who chase the strange frequencies. A gathering for anyone wired for distortion and drawn to the red light of the underground. Step inside, where the price is full and the drops are fresh!

"Hydrology commandingly recalls and fuses together filaments of vintage kosmische, New Age ambience, Brian Eno, Sam Prekop’s latter-day solo works, whilst adding Yorke’s own distinct and enthralling imprint on top of it all"
