@HardTouchWet - I liked the spoken word samples as well. It created very unique "wholeness" which would probably be failed to achieve without them. I loved the side B as well. It had very easily distinguishable synth sound buzzing on the background which made me think of some more experimental type of stuff. This was totally groundbreaking work for XE and I'm very keen to see how this project is progressing in future.
Best track on this tape. Vocals are more BU sounding and the sounds are thicker with more movement than on previous feedback drenched XE releases, which is great since the latest Snuff was pretty much contact mic/feedback and vocal hell like an old XE tape.
I wish XE would do a whole new set of completely new material, though. This track was recorded in 2010 and "Oath" is, of course, off of White Power (2009). Could care less about the field recording/spoken word samples on the second tape.

@MisterMavet - You're absolutely right and I must say that this release has the best XE recordings so far. Absolutely stunning work...
