Album Notes & Community Reviews

Accompanying their highly praised 'Tri Repetae' album, this release embraces a significantly harsher, more metallic edge. The percussion is exceptionally sharp and abrasive, mimicking the rhythmic clatter of heavy machinery beneath cold, sweeping synthesizer pads. A visually striking, heavily glitched music video for the track 'Second Bad Vibel' was directed by visionary artist Chris Cunningham, perfectly matching the erratic audio.
