Clean Hands Go Foul (2009) generously offers more of everything: voluminousdrones, clashing dissonance, mysterious subharmonic swells, escalating terror,and environments drenched in heavy anticipatory dread.The final hour of the band's first decade sees Khanate, as always, making "musicthat, even in the realm of extreme music, is dark and distorted" (Pitchfork).Clean Hands Go Foul would be followed by the ultimate minimalism, as theKhanate entity sat shrouded in silence until the release of 2023's To Be Cruel.
