Following on from Artifacts & Uranium (2021) & Panscosmology (2022), ‘The Gateless Gate’ completes this trilogy of remote experimentation.
Two side long compositions, composed of Organs, Synths, Bass, Guitars, Drums, H-Delays and the Behringer Wasp.
Side A is laid back repetition, layered guitar ascending, tremolo organs and gated synths. That descends in to horror show choir and waster feedback guitars.
Flip side B starts a pastoral, Popol Vuh harmonic structure of accession. Viola drones balance assist the climb courtesy of Martin Ash.
Transitions in to a later period AshRa, bass lines and higher stereo delayed guitar freak-outs.

giro days pummelling 12 minutes monster grinder is a gem a perfect soundtrack to the time honoured tradition of going completely bonkers for one day a fortnight. that refrain of sex death sex death is tied to the title for me..the little death.sex ...and life ..measured in giros.or.lives ,measured in bi weekly trips to the hole in the wall at midnight .....a triumph of a record... probably as good as just say no..but I'm a sucker for a pair of drummers.GNOD ON christopherogley

There must be something magnetic that inexorably draws me into this thick chunk of noise, sweat, riffs, distortion, mud, repetitions, screams, psychedelia, and dirt. Something magnetic. And I have always been attracted to magnetism. muschiosauro
