Listening to the first song of the album makes you want to get out into the light -- the broken industrialized monotonous gray of the sound fabric conjures up the moods that prevail when you drive to work by bus on a rainy morning, leaning against the window, looking at nowhere. Another week, a seemingly endless day, what-the-hell-am-I-doing-here state of mind. You wait for a ray of light in this milky wall of fog -- although ray of light is probably not the right word. Changes will come but nowhere else than in the dreary sound dome caused by the artist. Angels dance enchantingly but still glumly and heavy-footed. Minimalist sound repetitions and iterative rhythms give direction to the droning darkness -- even a techno vibe can be felt here. Even if the sound stream acquires an enchanting freedom from time to time, there is a perceptible piercing sonic rust in the sound. The music of the semi-mystical Oklahoma family band dynamically bridges (old school) industrial music with its later sequels. "Sea Of Glass" is a song that deserves a special mention as it lifts the listener to the other side as a psychedelic rhythm charm. Very convincing -- at this point it can be considered a classic -- for 15 years this 9-song has been lurking the listener. We sanctify its rule.

Great listening-- there's lots going on here, lots to hear and experience. I feel like I grow a lot as a musician when I listen to works by Ctephin.
