Described by Elverum, who also records as Mount Eerie, as a record of “100% background noise” that “contains no music”,
Foghorn Tape, as Pitchfork notes, is a vinyl-only release that’s “literally just the noisy fuzzed out tape loop of a ‘fog horn’ (actually a distant pitch-bent bass) that plays through-out the background of ‘the Glow pt. 2’ and other Microphones musics.” Limited to 999 pressings on clear vinyl, available on Elverum’s P.W. Elverum & Sun webstore,
