S. Process

Although this is a rather short album - just over 24 minutes in total - S. Process utilises some kind of Stephen Hawking theory to make the listening experience feel like a solid hour. The guitar work on this anti-progressive/anti-formula experimental space punk rock is obscenely radioactive in nature, sizzling everything in its path, as do the bouts of unusual percussion and broken organs. The residue from this bombardment genetically melts the sci-fi of early Gary Numan and the quantised rock grimoire of Joy Division to make some rather interesting cochlea frolicking. They do not always make "songs" per se, but instead they play out like musical vignettes or act as imaginary cues for film soundtracks. Daring.
