Album Notes & Community Reviews

The avant-garde industrial project extensively plunders modern classical recordings and bizarre world music samples to assemble its fractured, dense compositions. Helmed by Daniel Vahnke, the album features erratic stop-start rhythms overlaid with a diverse array of guest vocalists, forming a heavily surreal sonic collage.
