Album Notes & Community Reviews

The wildly prolific experimental collective delivers an incredibly dark, deeply surreal collection of avant-garde psychedelia. The album heavily integrates ominous dark ambient electronics and chaotic, aleatory soundscapes, framing Edward Ka-Spel's typically cryptic, satirical, and highly poetic lyrical narratives.
