With roots in projects such as Spray Paint, Black Eyes, Swans, USA\/Mexico, more eaze, and Thor &amp; Friends, these musicians have decades of experience and, together, dive deeper than ever into the hypnotic heart of drone music.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Guided by the principle of \u201cMaximal Repetition Minimal Deviation,\u201d Water Damage has earned a reputation for transforming seemingly simple patterns into vast and immersive soundscapes. Their music is a flow, a mixture of harmonic tones and textures that expands until it is beyond the reach of the ear. With a less direct approach than many of their peers, the band prefers to let each of their sound ideas occupy an entire reel of tape. When they start recording, they don&#8217;t look back; they move toward an imaginary end that is only visible when the tape runs out.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Live, this supergroup functions as a mutable collective that brings together between five and eleven members on stage, with several drums, basses, and guitars sounding simultaneously. A Water Damage concert challenges us to surrender control, forget time, and simply enter the drone&#8217;s current. For those who accept the challenge, the band opens a portal to the farthest frontiers of sound and repetition.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>support\u00a0<\/strong>portuguese republic &#8211; culture, youth and sports \/ general direction of the arts. rtcp &#8211; network of portuguese theaters and cinemas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Veterans of Austin&#8217;s rich experimental scene, the members of Water Damage are well aware of the transcendent power of drone music, a force capable of transporting the listener&#8217;s mind to other dimensions.
