Album Notes & Community Reviews

A monolithic entry in the British noise underground, Matthew Bower's collective strips back rock instrumentation into crushing, unbroken walls of psychedelic drone. The completely improvised, deeply hypnotic soundscapes bypass traditional structure, functioning as a ritualistic, trance-inducing onslaught of feedback and overtones.
