Album Notes & Community Reviews

Self-released unexpectedly via a BitTorrent download, the track features a complex, krautrock-inspired motorik rhythm and interlocking guitar arpeggios. Its dense, hypnotic structure showcases the band's continued exploration of unorthodox distribution methods and math-rock time signatures following the 'In Rainbows' era. The song's atmospheric tension is maintained throughout its sprawling, mostly instrumental arrangement.
