Tea Uem i love the ambient side in Plastics w/ the noise spikes next to it. highly relatable to very bad mood swings w/ the limbo-numb aspect constantly appearing inbetween Favorite track: Plastics.

GPH Far more affecting and powerful than I expected. The female vocals subsumed in the mix mirroring the human suffering dwarfed by the surroundings and ambience of the hospital. Favorite track: Light Eater.

tr_🇺🇦 A refreshing experience. Closest to ambient but with frequent build ups and noisy outbreaks. One of those rare instances when harsh female vocals work. It's safe to turn the volume up as there are no loud ear splitting high frequencies. Pure catharsis and escapism to gather new resolve.

David Fischer I purchased this months ago and cannot really say what bothers me, it's almost impossible to review it. I genuinely love it. But listening to this EP makes my depression become depressed and my bipolar disorder escalates all over the place. Weird flex but The Absolute is absolutely great in my eyes. Favorite track: Catheter.

... Not for the light of heart.
Or, perhaps I have this wrong; perhaps this could be described as an ode to the light of heart. Although, its not a comforting one, its more like a sound track to accompany personal horror. An incredible sound. Favorite track: Catheter.

Gwynncore A horrifying and deeply emotional dive into the psyche of Uboa, with the aid of Solid Varak for extra drones and noise. A brief yet shockingly powerful, and perfectly paced Industrial Noise album. Favorite track: Light Eater.
