Burn Ward – Self Immolation
This is a nicely packaged business Card CDR, featuring just one track. The track is loud and on top of you from the opening seconds. Abrasive electronics and dirty noise with a crisp production give this a harsh, but somewhat controlled tone. There are brief moments of pause mixed in where all is quiet yet you hear the ambience of an open mic in a room which I thought was a nice touch. The clarity and the caustic nature of the sounds here combine for a really volatile mix of savage noise. It just bristles with a venom that not many can capture. Really nicely done. – Scott
