Ivan Ooze Posted May 12, 2014 Author Share Posted May 12, 2014 Ok, I'm at work with the album on repeat. I'll be coming back to this obsessively during the next months. It's a genuine high-concept album with recurring melodic themes, soundscapes and that bass drum kick that devours everything in site. It's the sound of modern civilisation and it's electricity system being engulfed by the giant throat of a tribal ancestor leading to the core of the earth. The attention to detail of its infinite layers of sound is basically unheard of. Perfect mastering, perfect processing, perfect progression. I'm overwhelmed. I will not say an extra word about this album. you are killing me man, when i'm finally gonna listen 2 this album at home it will be like taking a dump i'v been holding up for month's i hope they don't run out of digital copies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candiru Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 jesuss Venter is terrifying. Sounds like electro Swans. Ben Frost actually created the fire noises at the beginning of the track A Piece Of The Sky from The Seer. I think it's about damn time I check out some frosty Ben Frost.

oscillik Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 oh god, I've just realised that I've been playing the vinyl at 33rpm instead of the actual 45rpm it should be played at... 33rpm sounds better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you order from Bandcamp? The exchange rate made preordering from there a no go for me. Edit: Looks like the physical release date is June 10th in the US.

I ordered from Boomkat, I'm in the UK. it doesn't always happen, but it's nice when records come through early like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
