Dreamcrusher - The Apple Rots At The Top​/​The Cruelty II (Look At Them All) (LTD Cassette, Selfreleased)




A short one today, from the project Dreamcrusher (Kansas, USA), which has allready a couple releases under its belt.

The first track "The Apple Rots At The Top" starts with slow, reverbed feedback and static haze, which than abruptly transforms into harsh ambient and 'up and down' rhythmic noise. The ambient consists out of melodic and hypnotic, lush tunes, but get burned by the harsh static-like noise rhythms, which gives it a rhough edge and rather dark mood.

The Cruelty II (Look At Them All) begins with washy reverbed effects and soft noise. This changes quickly and than turns into a harsh noise rhythm, like in the first track. But the one here is more agressive and harsher.

This is a small but effective release. Especially the first track has a very seductive sound. It also has something mystic, like the artwork from the cassette cover.
Listen when you can.
