Guitar-bass-drum trio creating dark walls of distortion, feedback and noise. The soundscape is blacker then John Ashcroft's nightmares. Hell, it's even darker than his dreams! No lyrics here, only loudness. Drums in most tracks are hit hard on every single beat (in other words: this kind of falls into the Rock genre). Guitar/bass exploring, evolving and exploding simultaneously. Spacegazing galore! Start with 1, 5.

1. [7:23] * Like a big wall clock that gets ready for the apocalypse. And then it comes! Cymbals whacked, building intensity and craziness. *
2. [9:07] A saw? A bow? Whatever they use to make that sound, it's disturbing and cool.
3. [14:57] Maybe the loudest, noisiest of the tracks. And that's saying something.
4. [11:01] Accompanied by some shrieking sound. Slower, heavier, still dark.
5. [14:51] Drony-er ,lots of feedback loops, subdued percussion. Some sound bytes overlaid (is it an opening door?). Then what sounds like very basic piano training. Chirping ends the track.
