Our Take

MERZBOW and Lawrence English's collaboration on "Eternal Stalker" is like taking a wild rollercoaster ride through a sonic wasteland. The 13-track album is a cacophony of noise, glitches, and eerie atmospheres that will either make you want to run for cover or embrace the chaos with open arms.

From the opening track, "Stalker," it's clear that this album is not for the faint-hearted. The relentless barrage of distorted beats and harsh frequencies is like being trapped in a haunted house filled with malfunctioning machinery. MERZBOW's signature noise elements are on full display, creating a sense of unease and tension that permeates throughout the entire record.

Lawrence English's contributions add an element of tasteful restraint to the chaos, providing moments of respite amidst the sonic onslaught. Tracks like "Eternal Echoes" and "Stalker's Redemption" showcase his ability to create hauntingly beautiful soundscapes that complement MERZBOW's abrasive textures.

Although "Eternal Stalker" may not be everyone's cup of tea, it's a bold and fearless exploration of the limits of sound and noise. If you're willing to step outside your comfort zone and embrace the unconventional, this album is worth a listen. Just make sure to buckle up and hold on tight, because it's going to be a wild ride.
