Hey this one actually has some cool stuff especially on its second side. This is a demo but surprisingly construction in terms of transition and fluidity between tracks is actually quite well done, with most tracks feeling pretty much in continuity. In terms of sequencing and prod though, things are pretty awful: we switch back and forth between genres, and I don't think anyone tried to make sure there weren't dramatic shifts in sound quality and frequency content. There's also scarce but dreadful panning issues. Nonetheless on the whole, the raw sound is cool. After the nice and dark 1, the record starts off rather poorly, with 2 and 3 being so raw and burpy that it just sounds funny to me. 4 is a cool but excessively long sort of cinematic organ piece + screeches. Those screeches (already seen on 3 and quite prevalent in the later record) evoke The Body, and that's actually quite cool. Some bits of the bm 5 are cool and despaired but on the whole the track is a meh. 6 is completely random but made me think of melt banana and it's overall quite fun. 8-9 are the record's peak with nice evilness to them, 9 putting up a particularly bleak wall of sound and dragging this just above 2.5. 10-11 continue this but it gets a bit old, then the end record is mostly ok, uneventful, outroey stuff. Maybe check the couple tracks I highlighted but no need to hear the whole thing I'd say. 2.6
