Man. This is excellent. I saw some of these performed but I hadn’t heard this recorded till now.

Massive work of Art

This is awesome, most exciting thing I’ve heard in a while. Thanks for the upload!

That's a really interesting visual art piece. Same goes for the music (that goes without saying!).

[@artboi8983]

It’s a monochrome version of “Painting” (1946) by Francis Bacon. Definitely check it out at MoMA if you’re ever in NYC.

Branca lives on forever. Fuck me this is sonic brutality at its most punishingly enjoyable. FUCK!

[@NervousNorman]

Good grief

[@salemuxo]

You have no idea what you're on about. You have no idea that you even exist.
