Clew Of Theseus - Rehearse The Right Life (Husk): Recently decided to get my hands on all the tapes that had been released around the time of the Death Urge LP, because that disc just completely fucked me up. Have been ignoring Ben's more drone-ambient-based works because I was just so fond of those harsh noise early days. Seems like his latter explorations wade heavily on classic industrial territory. This reminds me of M. Bianchi trying to channel Zero Kama. Very simple, mild, hallucinatory feedback works.
Spoils & Relics - Angels Trumpet Over Moonbeams (Chocolate Monk): Had to check them out after the perplexing interview in Fördämning #4. Hard to pin down... it isn't concrète muzak, yet it is. A journey through many, many rooms of unique and puzzling sounds; birds, insects, the human voice, accelerated loops. Very challenging, but rewarding.
