Comment: firstly, I like an unconventional nature of the album regarding the outer shape. It is composed of 56 notches replete with disparate impulses and irrational progressions and unchained progressions. The cover print depicts the Barbie doll which is being one of the most exploited artefacts worldwide in a truly skewed way. The artist hijacked the idea of the doll to mock the Western consuming community through over-sexualisation of woman`s body. By conceptual side the artist used to follow a classical noise music idea. The initial idea of noise music was to showcase absurdity and mental disturbance within politically invoked martial games through painfully aroused sounds and weirdly sequenced compositions thereby being thought-provoking and challenging. By musical side it is comprehensive by extending from silence induced snippets and tottering ambient and opaque drone sounds to re-contextualized speech snippets and heavily deranged electronic progressions. However, the loose concept is a positive sign in any cases. The issue is a part of the discography of Tape Safe.
