^it's in the general music section so there's not really any limitations. I kind of threw it out as a joke but we can roll with it.

Oddly enough I think that it does have a kind of beauty about it, albeit an ugly and abrasive form of beauty. There's something about it that's incredibly hypnotic so long as you don't get irritated by it. Some of the feedback loops are kind of angelic if you can pick them out, which makes me think of another thing that I love about the album: it's dense as hell. It's sort of like a Pollock painting with layers and layers of colours and paints, but instead with sounds. It's busy enough to sound different from listen to listen (although certain melodies are more pronounced), but to me it doesn't sound convoluted even though there's a lot going on. Plus I like how intense it gets and the ending is one of my all time favourites.

Make that a yes and a half for me.
