3rd full length release from this acclaimed Martin Bladh (IRM) project(in conjunction with Magnus Lindh), following 2002"s New Skin CD and 2006"s double CD Journal Noir/Lithium Path, both on Cold Meat Industry.Like previous works, Rothko Field is a visceral auditory experience...mind bending and turbulent sonic explorations that are grainy, abstract, and tense, where uneasy frequencies intersect with caustic drones, insectile buzz, swelling drifts, and slow motion, percussion driven sludgery. Further comparison reveals Rothko Field to be less schizophrenic, less challenging, and more structured than in the past, coming off as both spacious and yet suffocatingly claustrophobic, suggestive of a spiral downwards into mental decay and degradation, and further enhanced by Martin"s uniquely distressed and provocative vocalizations.9 tracks total, broken into two "mirrored parts", with track 5, "Void" acting as the actual mirror itself.
