The Fortieth Day is the duo of Isidro Reyes and Mark Solotroff, both key players in the heavy-electronics outfit BLOODYMINDED, a band known for its aggressive and confrontational live shows. In The Fortieth Day, Reyes and Solotroff utilize guitar, bass, drum machine, and analog synthesizer to create epic, blackened, psychedelic-industrial drone soundscapes.

I've been quietly working on a new recording over the past couple of months, and after reviewing the master numerous times during the past week, I sent it off to the cassette duplicator. I'm still working on the cover artwork, so I don't have anything to share right now, but I can say that it will be packaged in 5" x 7" poly clamshell album with wraparound covers and it will include a pin and a download code. The title is "The Myth Of Community" and the track titles are "Administrative Framework" and "Institutional Transparency."
