AMN Reviews: NYM – Untitled (2015; Attenuation Circuit)

Mystery artist NYM´s Untitled contribution to Attenuation Circuit´s small-run artisan CDR series is pretty aptly characterized as Thomas Köner mixing Lustmord, though I might object that more of a tale is being told than the celebrated but stoic sound colorists would choose. It is a truly massive half hour, ataxic rather than glacial in movement, strife-riven, suns sputtering flares and collapsing into white dwarves in the place where the black stars hang (it is hard to disengage from the comparison once it´s been planted in your head). Dark ambient as unambiguous as a man´s ruin tattoo.
