Interesting drone that rarely succeeds in execution but remains of interest. The bulk of
the album consists of sound collages usually laid atop a layer of strings of some sort,
sometimes pizzicato which I'm not a fan of here especially on 5, and with the occasional
vocal layer added to it. The bookends are best by far here, both jams, with 1 demonstrating
the concept outlined above done just right, and 9 being an unexpected but powerful vocally-
led ominous jam. 4 is also nice in an ominous style, 6 works very well in places with some
noisy bits but isn't jammy on the whole, and 8 works well but not as much as 1. For the
rest, this has good sounds and ideas here and there but it just all feels too bleep
bloopey. But man the opener is really superb. 3.2
