I very much enjoyed Noise Hangover’s previous releases, "Event Horizon" and "Azathoth," so I was interested to see what was in store this time around. And in case the Azathoth title piqued your interest, their stated workplace on Facebook is "Plateau Of Leng at Yuggoth Inc." Watch out for the fungi out there, everyone. So let’s get hammered with Noise Hangover and see what happens.

"No Future" is a heavy droning number with low end drone interspersed with high pitched feedback squalls and analog tones mixed together. The feeling is unsettling, and the toggling between high pitches and low drone puts you on edge. Towards the end everything becomes more spastic, and the measures shifts are replaced by frantic turns of the knobs and everything sort of falls apart into a cacophony of noise. Well done.

"The End of Everything" unloads a slab of dissonant drone that is heavy enough to put on a scale. Imagine someone holding down all of the keys on a synth and then turning it up to 11. This is underscored by rumbling noise, hiss, and feedback. At the end, it all dissolves into a sea of feedback and fades away. Like everything.

If you're looking for peaceful drone, you'll need to look elsewhere. If you want to piss off your neighbors, Noise Hangover has got you covered. This is incredibly well done, and I have yet to find a Noise Hangover release that I didn't enjoy. Well worth picking up. This album weighs in at around 18 minutes.
