Never have I been this captivated by an album so harsh and unrelenting in recording quality yet so harrowing, lachrymose and puissant in its lyricism and themes. Being able to fit so much raw emotion in 18 minutes is baffling, but it makes it all the easier to listen to it over and over and over again. Plus the fact that this entire project was recorded using a dictaphone and a webcam is DIY as fuck. "The easiest things become a chore; Living becomes a chore..." Buster
