CLXVI. Altar Of Flies | Permanent Cavity



















Permanent Cavity
©iDEAL. Sverige, 2010.


'Permanent Cavity' is the latest, and some may say the best, in a long line of noise recordings from the prolific Mattias Gustafsson. It was recorded to tape between 2007-2008 at his studio in Sweden and contains seven articles of controlled experiments in the art of structured noise designed to unsettle and scare. His tactile approach and appreciation of silence and space would place his work closer to that of Kevin Drumm in some respects, than say the butchery of Prurient, and there's also the sense of doom dub dystopia that made BJ Nilsen's 'Death Dub' 7" so vital. Half way through the album we reach the most tranquil spot, where he conjures imagery of Philip Jeck and Helge Sten communicating under heavy skies and the scorched, spherical tones of the title track bear a resemblance to Mika Vainio's mastery of circuit-hewn brutality.
