Dan Fox poses the question, "If Imitation Is the Highest Form Of Flattery, What Is It When I Try to Recreate My Own Past Performance?" For those unfamiliar with Fox or his label, Inner Demons, he records under a host of names, most notably Loss and Fail. But let's get to the heart of the matter and answer his question, shall we? It's pretty impressive and makes me wish that he wasn't on the other side of the continent so I could actually see this up close and personal.

This release consists of one 18.5 minute track. Fox manages to create a constantly shifting kaleidoscope of sound. There is a lot going on, but Fox gives the different parts time to breathe and meld together beautifully. There is a constant undercurrent of drone, but this is not harsh noise wall. In fact, I would say that it isn't really all that harsh. Noisy, yes, but the overall effect is hypnotic and quite pleasant. As it slowly unravels at the end, you get the sense that the intention is to end gently, rather than blast you with noise.

Overall, this is one of the best things I have heard from Fail, and it's a free download, so you really have absolutely nothing to lose. Add this to your collection. This disc weighs in at just over 18 minutes.
