The New Pollution and Other Favorites

A deconstructed companion to Odelay. Glitchy Aphex Twin remixes and abrasive lo-fi experiments collide with surrealist pop sensibilities.

It's like Odelay went through a paper shredder and Aphex Twin glued it back together.

A restless and abrasive exploration of the space between pop melody and industrial noise.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The jarring transition into the Aphex Twin remix where the groove is replaced by mechanical stuttering
The raw, distorted guitar crunch of Thunder Peel cutting through the polished pop expectations
The hypnotic and increasingly erratic vocal delivery on .000.000 that ends in a frustrated scream
