Comment: this handful of tracks is provided by Milan, Italy-based collective M!R!M which is full of the washes of noiseful guitar hooks and hirsute glides, rigid mechanical drum rhythms, and shoegaze-esque whiffs. The last track Dew is the divisive exception entwined on massive guitar noises and undulating thudding, suggestive electronic effects having closer touch with ambient music rather than punk rock aesthetics. Emotionally it seems to be desperate and grim ready to kick in your eyes. By kindred souls it reminds of Joy Division, The Chameleons, Glenn Branca (i.e Dew). Enjoyable.
