notes
"This is a complete package, aesthetically speaking. And conceptually tight as well. When I began to see the whole is reflected throughout the parts, how the ruptured sounds project cataclysms, both in its discrete moments and sustained throughout the elevated whole, I was sunk. This really is an excellent record. It's a pleasure to drown."
9/10 -- P. Somniferum, Foxy Digitalis (22 January, 2008)
"A massive expanse of low end whir and phantom drone drift, gorgeous and mesmerizing, with a dark dreamy melody, both ominous and lovely . . .shuffling skittering rhythms wrapped around slow burning solar flare guitar. So good."
Andee, Aquarius Records
"The sheer creative use of sound to evoke mystery and a sense of doomed adventure is astounding. Weaned as we are on endless retreads of the good old pop machine's 2:59 verse-chorus-verse format it's unlikely many people will have the pleasure of hearing these sounds. That's a shame on many levels."
-Keith Boyd, blogsandiego.com
"This one-man ambient drone project succeeds in evoking some of the wildest images that few drone bands can accomplish.
Rating: 10/10
- Ryan Loostrom, Maelstrom
"It's a testament to this CD's quality that I've listened to it for almost four hours on repeat, and I haven't tired of it yet. For a recording to do that, it must be both low-impact and abstract. In other words, it doesn't tell you how to react to it. It just is, and its openness to interpretation makes each listen a unique experience."
-Cosmo Lee, Invisible Oranges
