Improvised live, you can hear ideas being explored with quick-reflexes and the sensitivity of musicians who listen, using silence as a compositional tool. Occasionally they veer into total free improvisation, with Rupture conjuring up extraordinarily obnoxious sounds purely from vinyl manipulation and Moor making his guitar sound like it's strung with highly charged telephone cables - but somehow they always manage to keep a central pulse going and never seem to lose their way.

Patches cooks up an unlikely stew of Kenyan kipsigis singing girls from the 50s and scratching discordant guitar and Diana Ross. Timeblind's dubstep beats, Varese, and Japanese noise meet with big crunchy whammy chords.

The vibe is persistently chilly, the terrain merciless-- even when Moor sets controls for the heart of the sun, as on the riff-heavy "The Sheep Look Up", he can't thaw Rupture's unforgiving tundra. Some tracks are spectral and nebulous, like the watery, de-tuned "Tidal".

The riddim-oriented ones are better-- on "Chisanga", Moor's string-bent squiggles gradually flatten out into a hitching riff, which Rupture surrounds with a phalanx of strafing drums. But the ones where they truly mind-meld, rather than Rupture chasing after Moor's riffs with periphery-bound FX, are best.

On "Hot Pink Orleans", mercury-slick sonar blips, pinging whammy-barred guitars, and scudding bass amass into a well-balanced dubstep apparatus. On "Sometimes It Can Be Difficult To", nervous guitar skitters, nervous scratches, and reverbed snares build into something resembling a terrible car crash. Nettle's work foregrounds issues of friction, translation, and displacement as necessary counter-narratives to the standard paradigms of 'cross-cultural exchange' and metaphors of mixing or hybridity.
