There are not much releases coming out anymore (since 2012 only one release a year, so it seems) from Climax Denial, and This one dates from 2008. The site from Alex Kmet is also not updated since 2012. Maybe this project is on its last breath and that would be a pity..Anyhow, “The Absolute Bottom” is the album of choice today and starts with “What I’ve Seen”. The track exists out of distant screaming and hiss-looped electronics and is very short; only one minute. The second track, “Just A Body”, is much longer, around twelve minutes. It begins with Harsh, drone electronics with a flanger effect and high ranged drizzling. The flanger effect intensifies as the track progresses and is joined by sharp feedback, almost metallic sounding. Heavily effected screaming joins in as well. After a while the feedback gets more shape and turns into screaming and eerie tones. A twelve minute delight of dense power electronics and harsh noise, for sure.
The other half starts with “A Fear Of Life II”. A track with sinister soundscapes, delayed yelling and decaying sounds. Very dark. “Tapeworm Agility”, the second one, also lies in the delay spectrum, with looped chunks of low, rhythmic noises and high ranged oscillating synths and feedback. With its many different sounds going on, this track has a very nice depth and sucks you in it as well. It’s playful, but also very dark. The third track, “Hotmouth And Pussyfoot”, has echoing, low electronics and deranging race car-like sounds going on. And the last track, “Y Kan't U B Klean?” has bird-like electronics, snarling delayed vocals and glistering noise.
A very good release that should be listened into a darkened room.
