THIS IS SOME DEEPLY INSCRUTABLE STUFF. VAGUELY IN THE ELECTRO/IDM/GLITCH ARENA BUT DEFINITELY NOT IN THE UK/EU TRADITION. THERE'S AN INDUSTRIAL AND SLIGHTLY SLEAZOID VIBE HERE THAT GETS UNDER YOUR SKIN IN THE BURROWING INSECT WAY RATHER THAN THE PENETRATION OF YOUR EMOTIONAL CARAPACE.
I AM NOT 100% SURE THAT I LIKE OR DISLIKE IT. IT SORT OF DEFIES CONVENTIONAL CATEGORIES IN A WAY THAT MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO COMPARE AND THEREFORE ASSESS IN USUAL WAYS. I CAN SAY WITH MORE CERTAINTY THAT I WAS BOTH REPULSED BY ITS DISTANCE FROM 'PLEASURE' AND IN ADMIRATION AT ITS CONSTRUCTION AND LACK OF CONVENTION.
IT ALSO DOES FEEL LIKE A WHOLE ALBUM. BRIEF, BUT RELATED BY A VISION, SO NOT JUST RANDOM FRAGMENTS OF A WEIRD MIND. WORK WAS PUT IN AND A VISION ACHIEVED. I'LL HAVE TO COME BACK TO THIS. IT MIGHT BE GROWING ON ME AS IT PLAYS.
