Death To Dynamics - Asunder [Death To Dynamics - 2024]

Asunder is a rattling ‘n’ rickety take on the walled noise from UK’s Death To Dynamics. The single thirty-two-minute ‘wall’ feels booth crudely aged and worn down in its attack- with the whole thing nicely set out into an entrancing-if-slightly wavering/ loose flow.

The release is a digital-only affair appearing on the project's own label here. For the cover artwork, we have an old (possibly Victoria) illustration of a strangely masked & suited man- either been tossed up in the air or saved by a group of four women holding a large sheet. 

The single self-titled track runs at the 32.28 mark, and if the illustration is from the victriona period it’s most apt. As to my ears the ‘wall’ has a decidedly industrial revolution-like feel- as it’s built around rapid wooden wheel-like churnings, loom-like rattlings, and rickety machine-like revolutions. The elements are set into a fairly roughshod & loose mesh- though largely the whole thing is set/fixed in its patterns. With one’s mind conjuring up Images of the dusty & dangerous factories of the period- where young children risked life & limb to untangle the erratic machinery.

I do hope Death To Dynamics goes further down a similar sonic path again- as Asunder makes for a rewardingly roughshod ride, and I can certainly see more possibilities with these types of textures.
