���� Two denizens of the L.A. area noise underground team up on this slab of dense, punishing noise, delivering two solid slugs to the neural system, each artist serving up heavy-duty harsh noise in the tradition of Macronympha and Incapacitants, each one distinctly different in its overall approach.

���� Constrain is another noise project from Droughter's Kevin McEleney, here building a churning mass of garbled electronic noise and bass-heavy rumble that shrieks and bellows across the a-side, constantly changing with a jarring, broken flow. "Solitary Solace" is a nice blast of skull-shredding psychedelic speaker-death, teeming with bursts of crushing low-end rhythmic judder, screeching metallic tones, piercing feedback and monstrously distorted tones, all assembled into a hellish sound-collage. That use of pauses and crackling electro-acoustic sound really amplifies the chaotic energy of the recording.

���� On the other side, Wrong Hole's "Mutual Transgressions" takes shape as a slowly undulating wave of black static and electrified drone, eventually erupting into blasts of massive bottom-heavy noise. This stuff is just as crushing as the previous side, but it's more akin to the ultra-violent end of the junk-noise spectrum a la K2 and Macronympha, with crumbling heaps of metallic chaos crashing down in infinite avalanche loops, occasionally breaking off into the sound of a girls voice or some other random sonic event, but otherwise focused on burying the listener beneath a mountain of pulverizing electronic debris.
