About this event
“This is an album about the fundamental human experiences of suffering, joy, and love… the only way out is in.” — Agriculture The Spiritual Sound unites the voices of Dan Meyer and Leah Levinson into a single spiritual language. Dan writes toward the divine through noise, drawing on Zen Buddhism, historical collapse, and ecstatic grief, while Leah’s songs, rooted in queer history and AIDS-era literature, frame survival as a daily ritual. Formed in the Los Angeles noise scene by Kern Haug and Dan Meyer and later completed with Richard Chowenhill and Leah Levinson, Agriculture has continually refined its ecstatic black metal. From The Circle Chant (2022) to the 2023 self-titled album and Living Is Easy (2024), the band has deepened its blend of devotional intensity and radiant heaviness. Built through collective dismantling and reconstruction, and grounded in everyday touring life, The Spiritual Sound offers not salvation but presence — a direct confrontation with the moment, where meaning remains possible through suffering.
