Kuru (brainchild of the Somnambulant Corpse label-boss) blazes in with a barrage of high-end squiggles and wails (not quite as deafening as Sutcliffe Jugend), a nice follow-up to MV's brutal closing piece. Ferocious, yet surprisingly atmospheric, as a near-overwhelming rumble is broken up by short blasts of delicious feedback. More restrained and ambient than MV, Kuru's material prefers to sneak in under the skin with varied passages of bristling, low-end guitar-distortion and eerie drones, occasionally breaking into more intense bursts of noise. Lovers of the traditional German style should find no problems with this second half, which plays excellent counterpoint to the harsher opening minutes of the disc. Highly recommended (despite the intentionally abrupt ending) to even the most jaded p.e. freaks; and with the effort this label puts into selecting and packaging their releases, I'm hoping to hear more from them in future.
