As part of a new tradition, we're going to be spotlighting our newest artists, as well as alumni and current accomplices. In our premiere feature, we're pleased to introduce Diaphragmatic to the Apothecary family.
History
We first met Nate Tandy of Diaphragmatic in January of 2011, when a touring musician dropped off the bill of Black Mass XV just days before, and our friend Pusdrainer (also performing) recommended the Indiana-based Diaphragmatic, a name unknown to us. Without a single preconceived notion, we witnessed him obliterate a metal hotel pan with a high-powered drill, creating a cacophonous wall of physically-visceral noise. A fan was born.
