this is good no wave/totalist/drone/post-rock and it's quite enthralling how these droning, noisy pieces evolve (or don't) over time and suck you in. It's also aggravating how they almost immediately devolve into being just hypnotic noise that can make your head hurt. It's almost the opposite of krautrock; instead of repetitive drum-led rhythms slowly evolving over time, these pieces go through changes so slowly it's hard to parse when and how they actually occur. Sonic gaslighting, essentially. It's a good album, but I don't know if I want to hear it again any time soon.
