10 Songs

Murky four-track recordings and primitive drum machine loops. A skeletal, haunting precursor to the sun-drenched sprawl of Vile's later work.

Find on Amazon

A claustrophobic and haunting exploration of solitude through the lens of a four-track recorder.

Moments Worth Listening For
The hypnotic ten-minute sprawl of The Eternal Fight where the repetition becomes a meditative drone
The sudden shift into the murky, instrumental Segue Charades that feels like a tape being chewed by a player
The raw, unvarnished acoustic intimacy of Song for John in D that sets a stark, lonely tone
