Who's playing first chair carbide drill? submitted by Steve Amick on August 13, 2014, 10:00pm This is what it would sound like if you lived in an industrial hell-scape, surrounded by soulless oil men and incessant drilling. Or, Scio Township by next year.

Um No. submitted by Judeyblu on June 30, 2016, 8:21pm While this may sound good in a large open area... or as the soundtrack to a horrifying movie, for me this is a no.

Different! submitted by mickplu on June 30, 2016, 9:13pm I was expecting something a bit more soothing. However, maybe this appeals to techno fans?

moody ambience submitted by camelsamba on June 30, 2016, 9:14pm The first track is kind of eerie and "noise"-ish, but the other tracks can serve as a moody backdrop when you want some music but don't want to have to pay attention to words.

Dark Sounds submitted by Meginator on July 2, 2023, 11:19am These tracks are all dark, shifting soundscapes that are probably intended for use as background texture; for that purpose, they actually work rather well. The album almost feels like a video game soundtrack, with just enough differences between the tracks so that the listener can tell when the shift has happened, but without much in the way of melody or even steady rhythm to draw overt attention. Moody and dense without being off-putting or surreal, these tracks seem to accomplish what they set out to do.
