A dark, peculiar journey into electronica and guitar shredding, not unlike Big B's 1996 effort The Day of the Robot. Opens with a twisted rendition of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" and from there winds its way through catchy synth lines ("Pin Bones and Polutry"), blaring heavy metal chords ("Help Me"), and lightning speed solos ("You Like Headcheese?"). Some of the songs are way too long ("Day of the Ulcer") and others bore ("Wires and Clips"), but nonetheless this is an underrated, uniquely atmospheric endeavor.
