Reviews

"Though this album has the Carceri sound written all over it, it’s also a bit different. There is a fair share of rhythmic structures to be found, which isn’t strange with his work, but somehow it feels different. The sounds are more experimental and subliminal, with an occasional IDM-like approach. And it also has a more industrial feel than the other releases. The total atmosphere is like being in a disturbing asylum, like ‘Seishinbyouin’. Supposedly he did about three years to create this work, also with the aid of test listeners and observing their reactions. This seems a somewhat unusual process, but if it’s true it sure did work! The sound is very scary with a lot of things happening in the background. And it’s again an album where the musician behind it all is also a great storyteller; it does really feel that it’s going somewhere, not just mere sounds, just like his other albums. A sonic movie of sorts" [1]
