"A collaboration between the two experimental artists that meant to happen. Belgium's Fear Falls Burning teams up with New Zealand's Birchville Cat Motel for 1 single long track displaying their fascination for the metallic and slow expanding drone. Made with guitars, amps, processing and subtle percussion, this album brought out the best in each other and is a lively, pulsating, moody and intense drone manifest." [label info]
"... The sound is intense, humid, and very cinematic. Eventually the sounds build, layers upon layers, erupting into a blinding heart-of-the-sun nearly static raga, what sounds like a million guitars all left to drone endlessly amidst a cloud of tinkling glimmering sparkles.
The last twenty minutes or so, finds all the high end swallowed by the low, the guitars begin to grind and rumble, pulse and throb, until the sound becomes a dark viscous river of crumbling distortion, growing less and less distorted, until finally, all that's left is a warm, minimal whir, that gently shifts and drifts until it fades out completely.
Most folks (like us) see FFB and BCM and already know this is a must buy, but this is indeed pretty fantastic, even amidst the
seemingly neverending (let's hope!) avalanche of amazing releases by both of these prolific noisemakers." [Aquarius Records]
"....It seems that Kneale takes the Fear Falls Burning guitar music into his own territory, that of 'cheap-o effect pedals' and '8 bit mono field' while on the job with his own electric guitars and motorised acoustic guitars (and drums it says on the cover, where are they?) and create a monster of drone music, metallic ringing and distorted. Working in straight lines this one, building, climbing, working towards that large crescendo, and then leaving the proceedings in an equally slow pace (well, not entirely equal, but you get my drift). The original from Fear Falls Burning seems to be swamped away here, but no doubt he did his bit too add to the distorted mayhem (looking at his recent work with Nadja, this might not be a surprise). One hell of a work, moving away from the more 'usual' burnings, and certainly something to look forward to in the future, if more of these collaborations will unfold." [FdW / Vital Weekly]
