Album Notes & Community Reviews

The former Wolf Eyes member delivers an intensely unnerving, deeply psychological masterclass in tape manipulation and harsh noise. The record heavily loops his own distorted, choking vocal noises, weaving them through walls of static and chilling field recordings captured in Nepal. It operates as a terrifying, surreal plunge into auditory madness and claustrophobia.
