Album Review: Pyramids by Pyramids

Very Good, Based on 1 Critic

No Ripcord - 70
Based on rating 7/10

Pyramids’ début album, released this year on Hydra Head, is one of the most singularly unnerving, majestic, difficult and confusing records you are likely to hear for some time. Like crawling down Dante’s concentric circles, it is noise without release, structure without form, a void without relinquishment. Although assigning genre tags in this case seems as futile a task as I have ever been set, Pyramids exist in a world where Christian Fennesz has turned evil and escalates his distorted ambience into a thundering post-rock, post-everything blitzkrieg on your senses.
