Ouroboros Software The more minimalist and colder sister project to hiding place. The album has a lot of a great songs but as a whole it's a great project and a great listen. Favorite track: Suzerain feat. Fielded.

Spivkurl One of the most pleasurable albums I have heard, ever. When I first heard it, I felt like it was about the people I knew and the life I had been living. I can barely stand a day without listening to this in it's entirety. When I am desperate to turn despair, anger or depression into creativity and inspiration, this album will help. Hard to chose a fave, but Suzerain feat. Fielded makes me think lovingly of my wife, and it makes me want to cut things up. One of my favorite albums of the decade. Favorite track: Suzerain feat. Fielded.

Jeremy Leaming vinyl pressing is nicely done, with some lyric-book "notes," which reveal someone involved w/the lp has a sense of humor. Favorite track: Western Education Is Forbidden feat. Fielded.

about

On his new album Terror Management, billy woods weaves past, present and future into a dark tableau as hilarious as it is macabre. This is a place where skeletons spill from closets, lead pours from faucets and the punchline is the whole joke. This is the sound of the police not coming, of garbage trucks in reverse, of glaciers shearing off into a black ocean. But these are also tales of perseverance, compassion and love, however quixotic. Of snatching one’s humanity from the fires that rage all about us.

Terror Management features production from Preservation, Blockhead, Willie Green, Messiah Muzik, Small Pro, ELUCID, Child Actor, Steel Tipped Dove, Uncommon Nasa, Jeff Markey and Shape. Together they create a backdrop of seamless fragmentation perfectly suited to these times—this era of cognitive dissonance. Mach Hommy, Fielded, Pink Siifu, Akai Solo, Lauren Kelly Benson (fka L’Wren) and The Funs all make guest appearances.
