Forming The Void

"Forming The Void" is a strange beast. There’s some fine post-punk/experimental grunge to the sound, but there’s also a strange post-dub aesthetic sensibility. Perhaps it’s the use of reverb here and there, but it feels a little Factory Records-like in its isolation. Where the labels tend to emphasise quantity over quality, "Here & Now" eschews consistency in favour of raw, fuzzed out grunge grooves that never really translate in any other genre except noise. These range from very appropriately spaced non sequiturs (“Do Not Disturb” is actually wrapped around a slightly drumless chiming loop) to directly written tracks that sound like they were pulled from a pulpit (“Drop Your Head Off A Staircase And Get Used To This Shit”).
