Album Review

Lo-fi, tribal, noisy. Lakes is Digitalis artist Sean Bailey. This is a rip of a 2006 cassette. Deconstructed, brutalized pop music. More extreme than something on K Records, but in the same vein. Lots of fuzz, generally a loose feel, and filtered through a gravely can. A dark, violent trip through a Pacific jungle. No FCCs.

*1. Thick, buzzy distorto noise fuzz and chanty, monotone-clipping vocals, appears to have some cool drowning organ, tribal, sloppy rhythm. (3:37)
2. Chimey, battering, ramshackle free percussion, atonal, nasally melody. (3:06)
3. Treated acoustic guitars, deep tribal drum circle chant. (2:19)
4. Instrumental. Buzzing undertone, a little guitar hook, strange use of drum kit. (2:14)
5. Eastern tilt to the melody with snapping, strange percussion, double-tracked vocals. (2:15)
*6. Sustained, droning, sharp guitar distortion, hunting chant with digitized jungle drumming. (3:44)
