3.0 goodErwann S. EMERITUS | October 21st 20

This seventh instalment of the SYR series is made of two looong trippy soundscapes. Being early 2000s live performances, this album is much more connected sonically to NYC Ghosts and Flowers than it is to Rather Ripped. Indeed, noisy'n'drony post-rock slowly rises into a mad mixture of shoegaze and doom metal, on top of which Kim "sings" random lines. In terms of pure musical journey, this is one of the most unforgiving album the band has ever released. It sometimes falters during some developments, but it manages to stay somewhat interesting given the rather "experimental" edge. It's clearly not for everyone though.
