initially begun years ago in response to justin broadrick's earliest project predating godflesh from 1983 - in particular the two final 7”s from cult labels 'fever pitch music’ and 'manifold' were an early influence for alberich. slow motion churning synths like a crack in the earth with sulfur springs steaming from the primordial broken desert floor. part split/collaboration/remix 'a second is a year' shows alberich at his most restrained assembling tense emanations crushed by metal on metal shifting, creaking and pressing.
the utterances of vocals similar to that of a lost soul or last rights supported by the dynamic and maximum/minimal emotional hydraulics of final. high pressure keyboards, gale winds and sandy ruins effects textures. two generations of heavy electronics see eye to eye for a second before the entanglement of space and time gasps a last meaningless breath.

An absolutely Amazing Album. Reminds me of a cloudy and rainy Summer Day. Very relaxing. This is how Ambient / Soundscapes should Sound. derwolpertinger
The darkness of this album along with its name is not nonsense, but has a lot to do with what you are going to find when you listen to it. A perfect ambience that gives you chills just trying to imagine what the "Black Crow Cyborg" coming towards you would be like. Two legends together on the same LP, you can't ask for more, LISTEN IT NOW! kato09
