Murphy
Transcendental in the best sense of the word, removed, as it were, from Kant's romantic and idealistic thoughts on transcendentalism. Cold 'n' dark, eerily so, within expansive tracts running through torn rips in space, connoting but the fountainhead of mounting podiums a.k.a Darkspace's crowning moment, that is, II. II's Three spacious tracks, assembled effortlessly from the well honed ideology developed over their renowned trilogy, are driven in largos (slightly slower than before: I) by mesmeric rifts conjuring stifling miasma propagating heavily within space; space accompanied by blast beats (less prominent than before: I) who with a modest mien sit lower in the mix, receding tastefully into the over arching atmosphere. The protracted bouts of BM rise and fall between bookends of continuity, rising seamlessly out of ritualistically warring ambiances reminding of a sinister brethren of Kluster-ish komischmusik. All in all, a handsome second brethren in the trilogy of Darkspace.
