Our Take

Martin Rev's "The Sum Of Our Wounds" is a delicious time capsule of cassette recordings from 1973-85 that showcases the experimental genius of the iconic musician. Rev's knack for creating immersive sonic landscapes is on full display here, with each track taking the listener on a wild ride through his unconventional sonic palette.

From the hypnotic synths of "Fever" to the gritty punk energy of "2028," Rev proves that he was light years ahead of his time in terms of sonic innovation. The lo-fi quality of the recordings only adds to the charm, giving the album a raw, authentic feel that is hard to come by in today's polished music landscape.

While some tracks may feel disjointed and chaotic at times, it's all part of Rev's master plan to keep the listener on their toes. Just when you think you have the album figured out, Rev throws a curveball that will leave you scratching your head in the best way possible.

Overall, "The Sum Of Our Wounds" is a must-listen for any fan of experimental music or anyone looking to expand their sonic horizons. Martin Rev may not be a household name, but after listening to this album, it's clear that his influence on the music industry is undeniable. So, grab your cassette player and get ready for a mind-bending journey through the vast and wonderful world of Martin Rev's music. Trust us, you won't regret it.
