Experimental side-project of Alexander Moskos (AIDS Wolf), featuring collaborators Nate Young (Wolf Eyes) and Neil Hagerty (Royal Trux). Close-mic’d vocals buried deep in the mix give this a spookily intimate but distanced quality. Occasional recognizable song structures coalesce, but then they usually dissipate and/or are covered up with noise. Really pleasant cd! FCC Clean!
Faves: 1 (skip :06 intro), 3, 5, 6
1. Skip the pointless 6 second intro to get to a haunting, plodding blues song with some noise piled on it haphazardly that remains stuck precisely where it started. Reminds me a tiny bit of VU’s Venus in Furs. Wish this was 20 minutes long instead of 3!
2. Flanged guitar, buzzes that come and go, repeated spoken lyrics
3. Guitar and piano floating in and out, wavery, some IDM beats and synth sounds
4. Flanged guitar again, starts more active then spreads out
5. Starts with echoey synth beats, guitar/organ/vocal melody emerges then disappears again under a choppy rhythm. Really nice!
6. Mournful lead guitar over a stuttering organ,
