Electro-pop from Joe ‘White’ Williams, a product of the Cleveland DIY scene, for whom 'new violence' pumps out of a gurning, all-consuming and mightily distorted bass vibration. There’s also a slightly warped bad-trip molten wax effect that makes you feel like you’re falling through the bottom of the track – its then you realise that you’re inside it, or it’s inside you, a powerful concoction that’s suddenly alive with compressed and FX heavy guitars.
It’s a muddy, messy deep-down attempt to source some kind of sonic truth, yet successive bursts of beat-fire bounce off the eardrums with a digital clarity that’s far beyond crystal-clear – this is no aimless search for enlightenment – though there’s something vaguely conceptual about the track, the intent or direction of it borders on the single-minded. Well worth a listen.
