"Well, this is somewhat of a rarity in the Harsh Noise Walls scene - a pro-pressed cd and printed booklet, in a healthy edition of one hundred copies. A brave venture from Where Is This, which should pay off given the quality of the sounds within. The cd holds four tracks, and is wrapped in wonderfully shadowy, decayed artwork; which reminds me of the beginning of the film “Irreversible”. The first piece, “Underground Cavern (Bear’s Den)”, is also the longest - a twenty-five minute track dominated by harsh “digital” sounding fizz and hovering feedback tones.
