3.5 greatTheManMachine | June 25th 15

There's no mistaking it - this is art-rock minus the rock, so much so that some sections may be minus the art, too. Dread and mystery loom over the entirety of this avant-garde haunted-house score whose magnetism comes from her unique+subtle use of rando-sound hushery - fuzzy static attacks and industrial pulses+ticks are rendered cushiony soft, ominous synths+piano plunks abound, unpredictable splashes of French-accented spoken word/page flutters/footsteps/zippers/whathaveyou are used for eerie coloration. "L'Oeil" for example puts you in a bomb shelter during a tornado while she whispers a books-worth of layered cryptic mantras in your ear ("Hang by the shower curtain's rod" "I wish I was a house") followed by a slipshod spoon-on-glass coda. And that's the ten-minute centerpiece: "2nd track of the compilation".
