Our Take

In the latest offering from the enigmatic Carl Michael von Hausswolff, "Conductor / Life And Death Of Pbocin," the Swedish experimental musician takes listeners on a haunting and atmospheric journey through the realms of sound.

From the moment the album kicks off with the eerie, minimalist tones of "Conductor," it's clear that von Hausswolff is a master of creating sonic landscapes that are as unsettling as they are hypnotic. The swirling synths and distant whispers weave together to create a sense of unease that is impossible to shake.

But it's on "Life And Death Of Pbocin" where von Hausswolff truly shines. The haunting chants and pounding drums build to a crescendo that is as exhilarating as it is terrifying. The way von Hausswolff is able to create a sense of tension and release with just his music is nothing short of masterful.

Throughout the album, von Hausswolff proves that he is a true avant-garde artist, unafraid to push boundaries and challenge listeners' preconceptions of what music can be. "Conductor / Life And Death Of Pbocin" is a journey into the unknown, a sonic exploration that will leave you breathless and wanting more.

In the hands of a lesser artist, an album like this may have fallen flat, but in the hands of Carl Michael von Hausswolff, it is nothing short of a masterpiece. So sit back, close your eyes, and let yourself be transported to a world unlike any other. You won't regret it.
