Comment: this set of 15 compositions is something much more than one could expect from an ordinary, smooth issue after first chords. Of course, given that these 41 minutes are released by Chinstrap Music, the imprint led by Ergo Phizmiz (the cover design is also made up by him) then one should not have been surprised at all. All those surrealistic texts and impressively shifted storytelling reflecting upon the madness and tension being prevalent around us to be resulted in something totally different through our unnerving dreams and serpentine subconsciousness. It is a fertile sole for a genuine art. Undoubtedly the cognitive dissonance used to surface more distinctly being juxtaposed to an ordinary pop assemblage at the first glimpse (a part of the whole is an obvious No Wave din, though). You know an ordinary pop issue embodies something to be hold back and there is a twisted doctor to make experiments with it. Furthermore, to employ an ordinary approach it even more provides possibilities to undermine everyday's life and its dullness. Is it either a diagnosis or an effective result it does not make sense in fact. Let's say 2 in 1. Very pro to add it to a best list of surreal/dada music.
