  1. gives it a: 5/5

    I’m not sure what happens to my brain when I listen to ‘No Love Deep Web’, but I think I like it. It’s an astounding effort for its disorienting effect alone, but you’ll also be head bobbing harder than you ever have before—involuntarily.

You know how, in Irreversible, you didn’t realize how that low noise was making you physically sick? It’s kind of the same principle: you’re engrossed for the duration, but in the silence of the end, you’re deeply unsettled and even a bit disoriented. It’s a great record.
