Engrossed in weaponry long ago washed ashore on rolling waves of static, every instinct whispers "pick them up and use them." Defend us, defend us from that which approaches us with cruelty and control in its eyes, and defend us from that which disguises itself and seeks us out from the shadows of our own fear or pain. Defend us from that which speaks from the past and refuses the future. Defend us from that which devours faith and bleeds doubt in its wake, which tells us that we mean nothing and that we cannot change. Take aim where it hides, and make it show its face, and learn it well.

Gay Death is the best power electronics artist currently. With minimal searing electronics along with some of the most important and powerful lyrics and lyrical delivery ever. Addictive and necessary. Yotzeret Sheydim
A flawless harsh noise wall album from a noise legend. Also perfect packaging for the anniversary reissue that inspired many of my tapes. A must-know project for HNW. Yotzeret Sheydim
supported by 4 fans who also own “To Draw Out And Dissect An Invisible Foe”
Best experienced through the VHS, listenng in a dark room with a single lit candle gives off the same cryptic vibe. 40 minutes of crushing HNW. What's not to love? EJZ
The 20th anniversary edition of this classic album—remastered by noise master Merzbow himself—features four new tracks and new artwork. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 14, 2023
