alexey volkov - issue no 7 - jealous god - vinyl

New Copy

Genre: Techno / Electro

1. A Snake Falling To Pieces
2. Never
3. Ruins

Jealous God present Issue Number 7, the latest missive from Planete Rouge regular Alexey Volkov, and a record likely to cause bouts of overwhelming paranoia in listeners of a nervous disposition.

There's something undeniably uncomfortable about the horror-fixated electronics, dystopian textures and spine-chilling freestyle vocals of "A Snake Falling To Pieces". The more upbeat and metallic "Never" is a little less bloodcurdling, with metallic hits clustered round a modular synthesizer groove. Perhaps the standout moment - though it's an all-round excellent excursion - is flipside "Ruins", which adeptly combines both approaches on an undulating, skin-crawling techno thruster.
