Eyeless Face — Reclaiming My Soul From the Lost and Found

Eyeless Face are a two piece male and female project from Pittsburgh who summon up a atmospheric soaked & brooding mixture of:flapping and doomed bass guitar textures, sinister to spacey electronics & guitar noise texturing. Along with elements of junk metal manipulation, slurred electronics and jack-knife yet sleazed percussive industrial beat work-outs that appear here and there along the way.

The wonderful titled “Reclaiming My Soul From the Lost and Found” is the projects first release, and  I’ll have to say it I found it atmospheric, yet volatile in it’s unfold- meaning your often surprised and rewarded by the twists, jerks ‘n’ turns of each track. The CDR consists of nine tracks in all which run between just under the four minute mark to around the ten and half minutes mark a piece. The whole album is fairly rewarding and blanced through-out between atmosphere and mostly subdued noisey-ness. A few highlights come in the form of the opening track “Primalhive” which utilizes a rough and ready take on the opening bass line from Morricone’s soundtrack to John Carpenter’s The Thing, shorting to caustic sailing electronics, effect peddle abuse, and low key jagged yet atmospherics guitar fumberlings. “Greymalkin” which mixes layers of grimy & moody locked guitar textures or soured harmonics, bleak feed-back hums & whines, scuttling and creepy doomed industrial electro tolling, and weird buried vocals.

So this is a début release that offers up a brooding yet shifting mixture of: sinister bass lines, grim yet creative guitar texturing, and effective controlled/ atmospheric noise electronics. It's certainly worthy of your time if your in the mood for something chilling and creepy, but still has a bit of a noise edge too.
