It took a couple of plays and some playing around at the start to make sure this was being played at the right speed. It kicks off with a spin and is a huge racket right from the off.
It’s like Amebix have been brought into the 21st Century with musicianship and effects they could only have dreamed off.
From the start of “Given” where we are asked to “Commit yourself to me” right through 13 songs later to trance where they ask “Who Am I” this is a journey through the darkness and intense world of oily boys.
Each song merges into the other as each track explodes through your speakers, it almost feels like they are trying to wake you from a comfort zone and unsettle through the noise.
