Little is know about the secretive quartet named Pyramids, aside from their home base being in Denton, TX. Yet their music speaks volumes of a maverick ambition to blend atmospheric post-rock, black metal, and harsh industrial elements alongside several less prevalent styles (art rock, hardcore, psychedelia, etc.) into a dizzying amalgam of their own. Presented to the world in all its head-scratching glory via the group's eponymous 2008 debut on Hydra Head, the band's curious musical voyage was accompanied by a second disc featuring remixes by the likes of Jesu, Blut Aus Nord, James Plotkin (ex-Scorn, Flux, Old Lady Drivers), and Ted Parsons (of Prong and Godflesh).
