Review by kev rowland
SPECIAL COLLABORATOR Prog Reviewer / Special Collaborator
4 stars What we have here is a new band formed by ¾ of Anchor and Burden, namely Markus Reuter (Touch Guitars S8 and AU8, Loops and Soundscapes), Alexander Paul Dowerk (Touch Guitars U8 Deluxe and S8) with Asaf Sirkis (drums and percussion, vocals). Bernhard Wöstheinrich is the person missing, but I have no idea where he would have been able to fit in his keyboards and electronics as this music is intense and comes at the listener like a solid slab of thought with no room at all for anything additional. The instruments and musicians are clearly defined, yet at the same time it feels as if they been synchronised and arranged in such a manner that all oxygen has been take out of the room. That is not to say there is no room for dynamics or the use of space, but it is all carefully controlled and massively intense.

All involved are known for their improvisational abilities, but this feels as if the guys started with ideas and have then finessed and rehearsed them to take it to a new level. It is quite heavy, without being metallic, and the shifts in tempos and polyrhythms take the listener's breath away, and if there was ever a bastard child of King Crimson and Robert Fripp then surely this is that band. This is British extreme progressive music being given a huge Berlin twist and turned into something which is futuristic and creative, somehow bringing together the mechanical and the emotion to create something which has the drama of Rammstein but the inventiveness and play of live free composition. It is an album I get more from each time I play it, and while this will not be for everyone, those who want their music to be more challenging and outside the mainstream prog will find much here to enjoy.
