about

"Archival III" is the latest (and possibly final) retrospective compilation from Lithium Industries. Spanning from 2007-2012, this traces the origins of John Lithium's 'professional' output. The first half mainly features tracks from the Terra Engine project, the pre-John Lithium musical vehicle for Nathan J Carter. Focused mainly on experimental industrial and drone before gradually shifting to a more dark ambient focus. The second half features the early work of John Lithium, and a gradual expansion of the initial sound crafted through earlier releases. In lieu of releasing the remaining Archive.org albums individually, this release serves as a final exploration of previous auditory roads traveled, in favor of focusing on future endeavors.

These tracks were recorded over a period of years, under several different sets of conditions (and sometimes computers), so listening with headphones is preferred.

For those who do a full-album download, there are four additional bonus tracks (all recorded around 2012), the promotional video for "Sloth", and linear notes regarding some of my thoughts and recollections regarding tracks, and the links to the ephemeral films which inspired them (where applicable).

Music to analyze the past with.
THIS ONE'S FOR YOU.
