Gertrude Tapes:

"When The Gloss is Removed,” Zach Rowden's first solo LP, exemplifies Rowden's exploratory and ever-expanding sonic palette. Decaying loops, oscillating drones, spectral cries that emerge and puncture the static, wavering textures. Seemingly disparate materials coalesce to conjure a trance- like apparitional space, a defining characteristic of both his solo music and his work alongside Henry Birdsey in Tongue Depressor.

The tracks enclosed within not only cultivate this mentioned external space, but strive to initiate a sonic excavation of one's own interiority, exhuming that which is concealed in silence."
