4 stars Other is a welcoming new malevolent electronic manifest from the legendary Lustmord. After listening this album and most of older works from Brian Williams (Lusmord) I'm sure that your cannot listen to something creepier than this in experimental electronic music. Other pursues the dark, ritualist celebration of suffocating abyssal hymns with a haunted serie of super minimal heavily dark drones (for low abstract frequences). The appearance of guitarists in this new album don't change anything to the musical signature. It simply adds more lugubrious tones and notes on the dense & buzzing tapestrie of black drones. Each Lustmord's album reveals awesome sounds from the great abyss and this last effort is in the direct line of previous efforts. The same ideas and musical aesthetism are brought to the fore. Testament starts the album with a majestic epic droning piece with bass buzzing and echoing sound textures punctuated by hellish bells. Element carries on cinematic soundscapes impressively droney and sinister. Godeater is the central piece, including detached, horror-like minimal e-guitar power chords. Claustrophobic and disembodied electronic ambiences at its very best. A demonic musical masterpiece.
