– Track Reviews:

1. (5:47) Biting Through - kind of interesting, lots of sledgehammering through the warehouse sounds with percussion
2. ***(6:12) Clasp - lots more percussion with wandering electronic voice sounds above, a bit antic and fun
3. (3:07) Nine Years Of Facing A Wall - repetitive dark clanging/grinding with rolling stick play in the background, a bit hypnotic
4. (5:31) The Gulf - initially more electronic and even tuneful in a lighter way except for the constant bass synth pounding and annoying the brain until nothing else matters; very gnarly on the ears
5. ***(5:58) Wealth - a little quieter and exploratory in a good way
6. ***(6:08) Be - chimes? and strange turns of spacey sound with military percussion dominating at times
