Demdike Stare return with the fifth installment in their ongoing research and development series -- a double-headed monster split between gnarly reductions on the A-side, and industrial-strength edits on the flip. "Procrastination" edges through grimey detritus and gunshot snares within a vast open space perfectly primed for that Demdike slow-build. "Past Majesty" offers up a feral take on some kind of cyber-industrial insanity, somewhere between Ministry and Powell -- with a denouement which should probably come with a public health warning attached to it. All we're saying is -- watch yr eardrums.
