There seems to be a lot more control on Rotting Nepal than I’ve noticed previously, with some ‘almost’ delicate balancing of shortwave signals that are kept on the very edge of freefall distortion. The trapped rodent scream and alien growl of “Rotting Nepal 6” come together like an ugly melody and settles into what could happily pass as a Dalek beat before its overcome by distortion. “Rotting Nepal 1” is the highlight here, mixing up chopped and reverberated Nepalese speech samples and splinters of native instrumentation between subtle sandblasts of static. The piece has a rough dub production style of handmade echoes, clicks and distorts spiked with clicks of scrambled signal. Throughout the album there are rhythmic shreds of cloudy noise throughout the album that eventually explode from their controlling valves ending in messy static. Amidst the endless conveyor built of releases this is one solo Wolf Eyes release that’s really worth scrabbling about for. Limited to 500 copies on 140gram red marbled vinyl.
