thisquietarmy has a new record, out now, called Erosion, released on Canadian label Isohyet.

In the label's words, the album was "Created during [Eric] Quach’s 2026 residency at Art sonore à l’Abbaye in Saint-Benoît-Labre, Quebec, this 46-minute album is a sonic slab of monolithic drone guitars," inspired by the changing shorelines on Iceland’s Reynisfjara black sand beach.
