Album Notes & Community Reviews

Formed by former Napalm Death drummer Mick Harris, this project deliberately abandons the speed of grindcore for agonizingly slow, bass-heavy industrial soundscapes. The album relies on thunderous, dub-infected drum machine patterns and chilling dark ambient textures to create a suffocatingly hypnotic and mechanically heavy atmosphere.

Descriptors: atmospheric, repetitive, sampling
