Description
Death In Vegas return with new album Death Mask, where disintegration, overload and total sonic immersion tell a personal tale. With dirty circuitry and rough-hewn textures at the fore, this is gritty, unpolished techno; an audio outlier thats full of personality, and a bold artistic statement. Its closer in DNA to the grainy growl of sunn O))), or the searing intensity of Underground Resistance at their fiercest, and as far from generic influencer business as you could possibly get.
Ive been soaking in Ramlehs Hole In the Heart, the machine funk of Terrence Dixons Population One, Jamal Moss psychedelic techno jams, the stunning minimalism of Mika Vanios Ø and Panasonic, the layered drones of LOOP, and drowning in the acid of TM 404
Broader inspirations are weaved into the albums fabric too; from his Thameside Metal Box studio and evocations of nautical ghosts, to lamentations for a broken world, to memories of a youthful Detroit pilgrimage, and the innocent fraternity of rave euphoria, theres a lot going on, acting as a chronicle of moments, and locations.
ELECTRONIC SOUND 8/10 review : caustic noise and deep-flanged techno, skilfully drawing out enchanting, almost sculptural passages of serene beauty amid the cacophony
