"Petersen further dissociates himself from the Faint on his third album, as a first listen reveals the lack of guitar and drum parts, with a second revealing there ain't much bass left either. Horror movie piano lines team with ubiquitous blips and bleeps to constitute most of the sonic landscape here, mirroring the Petersen's stark, dehumanized vocals. On instrumental opener "Inward", Petersen plays the role of musician gone mad a bit too convincingly, steering through unstable fugues and OCD key pounding. Brief vignettes "Desaturated" and "Valentine" follow suit, sounding like xeroxed continuations."
An interesting mix with Shane Shane, but hey, it's the guy from the Faint. Up close and mopey".
