    Stephen O’ Malley has emerged from the depths of the underworld with multi-instrumentalist mastermind of composition Oren Ambarchi and Japan’s free-jazz minimalist warlock Keiji Haino in a new 4 song sequel to 2012’s self-titled “Nazoranai”. A brutal assault on the senses, O’Malley trades his usual axes for a bass guitar, Ambarchi helms a stampeding frenzy behind the drumkit, while Haino-san provides gurgling synths, spastic improvised guitar riffs and vocals not unlike a Banshee trapped in the void. This first track, You Should Look Closely / Those Shattered Spells / Never Attaining Embodiment as Prayer / They Are Born Here Again illustrates the sheer power behind their performances and highlights why each of these players are considered top men in their respective fields.

    Noisy, ritualistic, bleak. Fantastically challenging listen.
