It doesn't usually take me 3 months to produce 5 songs for a singular album. But here we are.

By far this is the most "out there" thing I have ever made, which says a lot about the project given my musical track record. I find it hard to define this thing as one genre or as one straightforward idea, but if I had to put it into a sentence I would describe it as beating the shit out of a computer in a dark alley because it owed you money.

I tried to make this as sonically dense and overwhelming as possible while still having it qualify as something musical. THIS IS NOT AN ALBUM FOR EVERYONE, even I need to be in a very specific mood to even want to think about this project, let alone listen to it for my own enjoyment. So don't feel like your "missing out" if you don't like this at all.

A lot of this project stemmed from feelings of disillusion towards the internet. I felt like so much content is so catered to the audience, so much algorithm based bullshit, so much fucking facades and fake meaningless trash. People making content just for the prospect of validation online or for some other vain nonsensical reason. Not like this music is much better than anything else on the internet, you probably found it through some reddit post I made to get listeners.

The internet has made us all hypocrites in a way. The world wide web has dug its teeth into everybody and there's no way out but through it. The internet wont go away, technology is here and it wont give a single fuck about you. And as much as I hate it, I've felt the addictive pull that the internet has, I'm dependent on it. The whole world is in one way or another.

Now enough of the Unabomber-esque rant about technology and the "state of the world" bullshit. Here's the album. Listen to it or not. Either way I'm just happy its something I made, and I was able to push myself to make something really weird and experimental. It was a fun and challenging to say the least. At the very least I guess I hope someone aside from me can derive some kind of enjoyment out of it.
