{"title":"Isis","description":"\u003cp\u003eIsis helped invent post-metal, taking the crushing weight of Neurosis and the Melvins and stretching it into long, slowly unfolding pieces. Co-founded in Boston in 1997 by Aaron Turner, who also ran Hydra Head Records, they began as pure sludge and noise on early EPs like \u003cem\u003eMosquito Control\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eThe Red Sea\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eOceanic\u003c\/em\u003e is where their tidal dynamics came into focus: clean, chiming guitar passages swelling into walls of distortion and Turner's guttural roar, then ebbing away again. \u003cem\u003ePanopticon\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eIn the Absence of Truth\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eWavering Radiant\u003c\/em\u003e refined the formula with more melody and more space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey split in 2010.
