Comment: the artist's 11-track outing is intense through different sonic aspects and creative playfulness. It starts off and at times comes back to a reverberant droning as if trudging through muddy soil, at times it is based on galvanized guitar playing and improvisations, at times providing majestic inclinations through ambient music, and most surprisingly, through a stupendously suggestive dream pop/chillwave-esque ray through its bottomless haziness. Although the latter element is represented as bare as a glimpse it will make up a contrast in one's mind and memory. Slightly simple iterative motives are mingled with more complicated endeavours and transgressive progressions. There is no premature fixing of style at all. With purpose to show this release as a true lavish one it should not be misunderstood as a superficial approach. All those droning facets create a milieu and impression as something truly obsessive. Indeed, we need it within and through music.
