However, this is all rendered through a murky production, as if it is filtering through troll-infested woods. The effect creates a sense of detachment and an emotional distance between the listener and the music, which is further enhanced by the distorted vocals. (I wonder if he is doing a _Filosofem_ and using a broken mike?) This, together with a hypnotic repetitiveness, holds together what could otherwise be rather disparate strands.

Whilst this may be mildly diverting, it is also a bit too much like every single other new one man shows band, but it's not too much of a stretch to imagine something worthwhile could emerge from this project several demos later.
