Why Should We Play Their Game?

Ben Harris I love how organic and alive this record's component wonky synths and warbling guitar work are. I've occasionally come across unappreciated experimental albums like this before, that always spark my imagination and sound (to my ears at least) like some of sort of audio-portrait of a music-based lifeform. Brandon Lopez's "The Church Of Plenty, Empty" and the "Deadly Chronicles: Assaults From The Land And The Sea" by deepseaorganism/Bug Catcher are similarly bioaudiological, in my opinion. Favorite track: Sex Is Great?.
