This new release takes the fairly fixed noise drone elements of the projects first release “The Aura of Collapse” to an new extremes. The single hour long track on offer here is mainly centred around this very drilling ‘n’ head battering dark drone, which  is akin to the sound of a buzzing & fault hard drive amped up to max.  After a while a slow galloping & pestilent beat is added under the drone, and this is added to by a majestic sounding dark ambient/  grim fantasy or sword & sorcery  sounding keyboard melody.   The track really fixes down into a unmoving mixture of this ugly drone, simply galloping beat, and dark fantasy keyboard melody for most of it’s just over hours runtime. The drums drop out in the last ten minutes, then in the last minute or so we’re left with just the keyboard element.

I’ll have admit that the first time I played this on my MP3 player, I thought something had gone wrong with either the transfer from CDR to Player, or the disc it’s self was faulty. But when the drums/ keyboard elements came in I guessed it was meant to sound this way. After the initially shock & my mind getting used to the very intense drone texture, I started to find the drilling drone meeting the persistent fantasy keyboard element a rather effective sonic jin & jang.  I can’t say I’d want to play this too often, as the drone element is very intense & pressing if you’re in the wrong mood, but if you find your self pining for a epic mixture of intense drone & ambience this is most effective.

So all told  “The Majesty of the Lidless Eye" is another intriguing & fairly originally take on black metal inspired drone/ noise matter.
