With a punishingly stark and brutal sound, punctuated with profound lyrical statements, Pitchshifter had found a highly effective cocktail of dissonance to build upon when they entered Lion Studios in Leeds, in September 1990, with the album coming together in a mere 72 hours. Upon the release of Industrial, the band swiftly found itself on support slots with acts such as Napalm Death \u0026amp; Paradise Lost and had also notably caught the attention of highly revered Radio DJ John Peel, who invited Pitchshifter to perform for his prestigious Peel Sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peaceville","offers":[{"title":"Black | LP","offer_id":50526984896843,"sku":"1123511","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50526985322827,"sku":"1123510","price":10.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/4bdf6345-8832-4186-8552-f39954b4324a_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1728050256"},{"product_id":"peel-sessions-1991-93","title":"Peel Sessions 1991-93","description":"\u003cp\u003eThese ultra heavy industrial metal tracks were recorded over two sessions at the iconic Maida Vale studios: 28th April 1991 and 30th March 1993 and were sourced directly from the BBC Archives (with thanks), with careful remastering for CD and vinyl.
