Out Of Fuel 'Harsh Reality' (Translation)
This marks a debut on Translation for this Finnish duo, who plumb the depths of the 85/170 chasm with some rugged, future-industrial wonkiness on ‘Harsh Reality’. Metronomic bass whumps and eerie, cavernous FX form an iron spine that slowly spills over into a more ragged and scattergun affair, as a volley of harum-scarum Amen edits and percussive flurries threaten to overwhelm proceedings. Taken from the pair’s excellent new EP ‘Ghost Notes’, this is future-facing craft that’s definitely worth further investigation.
7/10
