Reviews & Discussion
All GYBE!/Silver Mt. Zion related projects release fascinating pieces of music, awakening mostly haunting and unsettling landscapes of strange noises of strings exploitation. Long-term however I find this record exhausting, if not to say boring. The story behind this double feature seems more interesting than the music itself, which at certain point sound mostly like a pointless grinding rumble. The first record of SFTF was much more concrete and compact than this, although still this album is quite a puzzle for your ears to devour.
