Album Notes & Community Reviews

Operating at the bleeding edge of the European avant-garde, the collective constructs a jarring, hyper-fragmented auditory mosaic. By heavily manipulating tape loops, turntable scratches, and early digital glitches, the release stands as a profoundly challenging masterwork of abrasive, post-industrial sound collage.

Genres

Descriptors: experimental, electronic, sampling, dissonant, abrasive
