“No matter what you accomplish in life, or whatever you convince yourself to be true, you will always see the same failure in the mirror, for time knows all thoughts and all deeds.”
This quote is from near the end of TreatsForBeasts’ short film, Perfect Little Dream. I find that film fascinating, along with his two others, their eccentricity is absurd, obtuse and often obscene. But enough of big dumb words, because they have released the soundtracks, something I was waiting for for a long while. Not only that, but they’ve released the music for four of their most popular videos. I can’t really explain or pontificate upon TreatsForBeasts very well, but their content and music means a lot to me. A tenebrous darkness pervades TreatsForBeasts’ videos and music as he explores what I can only describe as our reality from the lens of an alien. If I were to pin down a singular theme for TFB’s work, it’s that people are weird as fuck, and that the unfluid attempts to think of ourselves as normal and sane in this insane world are seeds of elitism, laziness and failure to understand the human condition.
His short films are beautiful, and such is his music – But although it doesn’t really take away from the music, I can’t help but feel like I recognise where some of his instruments come from. I think he uses FL Studio. I think he uses it pretty well too – It all feels awfully weird, yet strangely familiar. If you enjoy anything weird, out there, earnest and dark, treatsforbeasts: the music comes well recommended as well as 4 rewatches of his 3 movies, which will probably increase to 4 sometime soon. Also, listen to the Sanguinarius tracks, not just on this (which he lovingly packaged with his other material) but also on his album from 2017 Sin Nomine which like his treatsforbeasts work is uncompromisingly dark yet is more focused into a goth rock atmosphere.
Also, quick plug. I’ve released a soundtrack for free for my friend’s game, Nighfall Hacker. Please take a look, I hope it pleases you, and feel free to wishlist Nightfall Hacker on Steam as well!

The Darkest Time is a strange album in that it doesn't do anything especially different from any band like it. There's no gimmick, there's no pretense of being particularly extreme or transgressive or strange, no playing to any alternative crowd. What makes The Darkest Time unique is that it is extremely good at what it sets out to do, and delivers a tight, dense package of heavy metal that is extremely catchy, evocative, and manages to get your blood pumping without the need for extreme speed or extreme heaviness. All of this is achieved with what I believe to be their single biggest strength, something that can't be replicated through sheer skill, although they have that in spades - That strength is energy.
Ever Dream, a band of Spanish origin, have some of the most infectious, delicious, full-hearted energy I've heard from a band possibly ever. Whenever I listen to this album, I hear the spirit of every player on it on full display - From the vocals of Celeste which put power metal belters to shame with her rebellious and playful attitude and versatile voice, to the potent drumming of Noel Rodriguez that thrusts forward the music in ways that make you feel as though you could leave the stratosphere, to the critically soulful guitar-playing of Fran Arregui and Yuyi , all served by the undercurrent of bass and keys by Marcos Vidal and Fran respectively pushing the momentum forward. That's the best word for it, really. There is so much momentum and power behind this music that for all intents and purposes isn't necessarily that heavy in terms of its weight, but in the way it carries itself, and the directions in which it takes the listener.
When I first discovered Ever Dream, I was pretty young, and it's been over a decade since it came out to find itself languishing in such obscurity it is genuinely criminal. When you go to Ever Dream's YouTube page, which thank God exists otherwise even less people would know of this band, you'll find viewership of maybe 500, 1000 tops. They thankfully have a Soundcloud, from which you can download their entire discography free of charge. I will link that in the description. Ever Dream are probably the band that truly ignited my passion for preserving music that has no voice in the world, no preservation on online platforms, and lies forgotten in the store rooms where they may never find an owner. Stuff like this, right here, needs to reach people's ears, at least once, and the fact that it continues to be forgotten is an aberration to me that can't be ignored.
What's even more tragic is that the band appears to be disbanded or on hold. They have not released anything since their single Diamonds, which is also available on Youtube and Soundcloud, and it appears doubtful that they will reunite to create a sophomore effort, meaning that this tightly packed album rich with a density of quality stands as their sole output other than Diamonds. And while not many have heard that legacy and far fewer carry it forward by listening to it, what a legacy to leave behind. Many bands who are important to the genre only release one record, and while Ever Dream are not a pillar of the genre, I genuinely believe they should be, as the quality of their work and the sheer listenability of The Darkest Time is something that many top-billing bands wish they had to their names.
When I say this is probably one of my favorite albums of all time, that might seem like an exaggeration. There are albums that are more important than this, sure. There are some that are catchier than this, mhm. There are ones that are more respected than this... But this is probably my ideal for what heavy metal should be, at the end of the day. Bearing beauty without sacrificing its soul, bearing artistic merit without veiling itself in the pretense of art. This is real good shit, and you should listen to it. On loop.
Look, dude, it's free on Soundcloud. You can't beat that. Just listen to it!

When you go to Ever Dream's YouTube page, which thank God exists otherwise even less people would know of this band, you'll find viewership of maybe 500, 1000 tops. They thankfully have a Soundcloud, from which you can download their entire discography free of charge. I will link that in the description. Ever Dream are probably the band that truly ignited my passion for preserving music that has no voice in the world, no preservation on online platforms, and lies forgotten in the store rooms where they may never find an owner. Stuff like this, right here, needs to reach people's ears, at least once, and the fact that it continues to be forgotten is an aberration to me that can't be ignored.
What's even more tragic is that the band appears to be disbanded or on hold. They have not released anything since their single Diamonds, which is also available on Youtube and Soundcloud, and it appears doubtful that they will reunite to create a sophomore effort, meaning that this tightly packed album rich with a density of quality stands as their sole output other than Diamonds. And while not many have heard that legacy and far fewer carry it forward by listening to it, what a legacy to leave behind. Many bands who are important to the genre only release one record, and while Ever Dream are not a pillar of the genre, I genuinely believe they should be, as the quality of their work and the sheer listenability of The Darkest Time is something that many top-billing bands wish they had to their names.
When I say this is probably one of my favorite albums of all time, that might seem like an exaggeration. There are albums that are more important than this, sure. There are some that are catchier than this, mhm. There are ones that are more respected than this... But this is probably my ideal for what heavy metal should be, at the end of the day. Bearing beauty without sacrificing its soul, bearing artistic merit without veiling itself in the pretense of art. This is real good shit, and you should listen to it. On loop.
Look, dude, it's free on Soundcloud. You can't beat that. Just listen to it!

Let's talk about charity shops. They're nice, aren't they? You go in and you'll find something old that someone didn't want, and walk out with a sick deal. You might find an old book on gardening, or a nice selection of plates, or even some furniture. You might even find some old cds that have been lying in someone's cupboard for the better part of a generation.
And this is where we find ourselves today. I walked into Oxfam (the one I go to has these awesome chocolate bars that they sell, it's great) and went to their music section, just perusing. I didn't expect to find anything, when I stumbled upon this yellowed old cd with a fun looking cover of a guy biting his thumb off. Looked it up, and it's not on youtube! Nice one. So I buy it (they're expensive in there but I've learned not to dally on this kind of thing as these records can go away and never surface again) and forget about it for a few months until I realize, "Maybe I should get back into the Youtube side of things, go back to uploading some more music". At this point I had no idea what kind of ride I was in for with this record.
So I'm not that experienced with hardcore punk - I know it's one of those things that has a lot of history, but I've never been curious enough to poke at it. By all accounts it's the good shit but until now I've never been there. So listening to this album was an interesting experience. Lucky One Dies First goes fucking hard and has no mercy. The songs are fast, smash your head in, and are effortlessly concise. The longest song is 2:32 minutes and the shortest is 8 seconds. The vocalist is screaming his fucking head off, the drummer is hitting it like the drumkit fucked his wife and the guitarist and bassist are murdering the fuck out of those strings. Every song feels more volitile than the last, and every one kicks and more ass. I would actually say I feel a certain extreme metal influence, certainly Grindcore has touched this but certain evil plucks of the lead guitar also suggest a black metal influence.
By the end of the last track, the lead singer sounds particularly unhinged and like he's drowning in vodka as he screams an anthem-like chant, "WE LIVE! WE LEARN! WE CRASH! WE BURN! BUT I'M! STILL! HERE!" This entire record lasts 17 minutes approximately, ending on gnarled feedback and the echoes of a dying chant. It is an absolute whirlwind of hatred and disaffection, and probably has resulted in at least one person getting arrested for speeding. I highly recommend giving it a listen... And am sad that their claim that they are still here rings untrue. Not that they're dead or something, I don't know that - But this was their only record. I deeply recommend listening to it if you have even a passing interest in punk, you can name your price or download for free off of Bandcamp, it doesn't matter which since they seem to have disbanded and put it up for free on there.
One last thing before we close out. There are a number of band names printed on the inside of the CD I got hold of. I'm mostly putting this here for my own sake so I can track these down at some point, but here's the band names they listed:
Sombulence - Ed Wood - Witch Cult - I.T.D. - Housefires - Senator - Offender - Attack! Vipers! - Belligerance - You Me and the Atom Bomb - For This World Is Hollow And These Hands Have Touched the Sky (nice Star Trek reference) - Skin For a Canvas - FR...F! - Watashi Calcutecs - Bearded Youth Quest - Capsized - Bigtopp - Danny Wright - Shipton - Sleep Centre - No Coast - Let it Die - Crazy Arm - The SLM - The Long Haul - Run, Walk! - A Wilhelm Scream - Cerebral Ballzy - Lives at Sea - Calm Before Chaos - On Flight Movie - Matt Black & the Emulsions - Whitemare - Palm Reader - Dashwood - Grappler

Yeah, I've been away for a while, so what?
Let's talk about charity shops. They're nice, aren't they? You go in and you'll find something old that someone didn't want, and walk out with a sick deal. You might find an old book on gardening, or a nice selection of plates, or even some furniture. You might even find some old cds that have been lying in someone's cupboard for the better part of a generation.
And this is where we find ourselves today. I walked into Oxfam (the one I go to has these awesome chocolate bars that they sell, it's great) and went to their music section, just perusing. I didn't expect to find anything, when I stumbled upon this yellowed old cd with a fun looking cover of a guy biting his thumb off. Looked it up, and it's not on youtube! Nice one. So I buy it (they're expensive in there but I've learned not to dally on this kind of thing as these records can go away and never surface again) and forget about it for a few months until I realize, "Maybe I should get back into the Youtube side of things, go back to uploading some more music". At this point I had no idea what kind of ride I was in for with this record.
So I'm not that experienced with hardcore punk - I know it's one of those things that has a lot of history, but I've never been curious enough to poke at it. By all accounts it's the good shit but until now I've never been there. So listening to this album was an interesting experience. Lucky One Dies First goes fucking hard and has no mercy. The songs are fast, smash your head in, and are effortlessly concise. The longest song is 2:32 minutes and the shortest is 8 seconds. The vocalist is screaming his fucking head off, the drummer is hitting it like the drumkit fucked his wife and the guitarist and bassist are murdering the fuck out of those strings. Every song feels more volitile than the last, and every one kicks and more ass. I would actually say I feel a certain extreme metal influence, certainly Grindcore has touched this but certain evil plucks of the lead guitar also suggest a black metal influence.
By the end of the last track, the lead singer sounds particularly unhinged and like he's drowning in vodka as he screams an anthem-like chant, "WE LIVE! WE LEARN! WE CRASH! WE BURN! BUT I'M! STILL! HERE!" This entire record lasts 17 minutes approximately, ending on gnarled feedback and the echoes of a dying chant. It is an absolute whirlwind of hatred and disaffection, and probably has resulted in at least one person getting arrested for speeding. I highly recommend giving it a listen... And am sad that their claim that they are still here rings untrue. Not that they're dead or something, I don't know that - But this was their only record. I deeply recommend listening to it if you have even a passing interest in punk, you can name your price or download for free off of Bandcamp, it doesn't matter which since they seem to have disbanded and put it up for free on there.
One last thing before we close out. There are a number of band names printed on the inside of the CD I got hold of. I'm mostly putting this here for my own sake so I can track these down at some point, but here's the band names they listed:
Sombulence - Ed Wood - Witch Cult - I.T.D. - Housefires - Senator - Offender - Attack! Vipers! - Belligerance - You Me and the Atom Bomb - For This World Is Hollow And These Hands Have Touched the Sky (nice Star Trek reference) - Skin For a Canvas - FR...F! - Watashi Calcutecs - Bearded Youth Quest - Capsized - Bigtopp - Danny Wright - Shipton - Sleep Centre - No Coast - Let it Die - Crazy Arm - The SLM - The Long Haul - Run, Walk! - A Wilhelm Scream - Cerebral Ballzy - Lives at Sea - Calm Before Chaos - On Flight Movie - Matt Black & the Emulsions - Whitemare - Palm Reader - Dashwood - Grappler

When you talk about an artist so often you might run out of things to say. Let this not be confused with repeatedly making the same album, because that's not what's happening. Each of this artist's works are unique, varied and interesting in their own way. But at a certain point you find yourself with nothing new to say about a particular style, and you end up repeating "I really like this". Well, that's the position I find myself in. Chiasm is an artist I have covered quite extensively, and thus it's very hard to actually write anything new about her. What else can I add? She's my favourite electronic producer, I would buy a toilet plunger from her if she put one
Enter John Fryer. Yes, that John Fryer. Ex-member of This Mortal Coil, John Fryer. Still need to listen to that band.
Forgive me for not knowing the history on this one, but I don't fully know how these two ended up collaborating. That being said, long time listeners will recognise his work on the In Hiding EP, with a remix of Locked In (Which was fucking great by the way). Then, I learned that Chiasm was collaborating with him further, with the EPs Away, Are You Okay and Intertwined. As a guy who's generally unfamiliar with John Fryer, I thought these EPs were good, but I didn't really click with the tracks that much. So now that Missed the Noise, the album that is the birthchild of this musical union has come forth, what do I think?
I think this kicks major ass.
The album starts with a bang and a banger, with Noise, a bouncy head bobber of an introduction with a hook that could catch a fox. And it's here that we immediately need to discuss Fryer's style, how it differs from Chiasm's and also converges. Chiasm is decidedly more home-made, in the sense that I wouldn't expect your average artist to make the kind of musical choices she makes. Fryer is more inclined towards a traditional EDM style, though that's not to say his music is at all ordinary - He takes Chiasm's style and tinkers with it, flips it about. I've often said that whenever I listen to a Chiasm song, I can hear new things every time or rediscover something I forgot, and such is true here, but in a different way. Fryer makes music for Chiasm that is different, but not alien.
Another aspect of why Missed the Noise is so great is, with no surprise, Chiasm herself. Essentially Fryer's music acts as the facilitator of a playground for her voice and singing, and she sounds as fresh as she ever has with catchy, gripping vocal melodies. It feels like the inclusion of Fryer's music is pivotal, because it provides a new context for Chiasm's vocals and music. I also believe Chiasm touched up some of these tracks - I find beats, synths and instruments that feel like they have that signature stamp on it (examples being at the start of Missed). No matter the case, I don't think Chiasm's only input was vocal. Some highlights of her vocals though, include Intertwined, Noise, Yours, and Gone, where miss Rohn recounts her experiences of 2020 self-isolation. That is kinda a joke, but those lyrics don't lie.
I usually come up with some way to describe each piece that Chiasm comes up with as a place. This one also has a distinctive feeling - I think that if this album was a place, it would be watching over the ocean, and in the ocean is a reflection of your past - All your triumphs, mistakes, thoughts, hopes, dreams - And then a thought passes you - "What now?" Missed the Noise is absolutely terrific, it's an excelent jumping in point for those who want to get into this kind of music and a great reinvention of Chiasm's style. I highly recommend at least giving it a listen. You don't want to miss this noise.
One last thing, and this is completely unrelated. I'd like to shill for my friend's game. It's called Nightfall Hacker, it's a really cool turn based strategy game where you play as a white hat hacker, and you use programs to erase other programs. It's got 2 campaigns, about 100 levels, it's got open ended design so you can pretty much pick and choose how you go through each level. It's also got a level editor and a soundtrack composed by yours truly. I can't comment on the quality of the music objectively but I'd say it's pretty good. And it's only 7 quid. If you could go support my pal, I'd appreciate it a lot. It's on sale for 20% off right now so definitely take a look and see if it's the kind of game for you.

Enter John Fryer. Yes, that John Fryer. Ex-member of This Mortal Coil, John Fryer. Still need to listen to that band.
Forgive me for not knowing the history on this one, but I don't fully know how these two ended up collaborating. That being said, long time listeners will recognise his work on the In Hiding EP, with a remix of Locked In (Which was fucking great by the way). Then, I learned that Chiasm was collaborating with him further, with the EPs Away, Are You Okay and Intertwined. As a guy who's generally unfamiliar with John Fryer, I thought these EPs were good, but I didn't really click with the tracks that much. So now that Missed the Noise, the album that is the birthchild of this musical union has come forth, what do I think?
I think this kicks major ass.
The album starts with a bang and a banger, with Noise, a bouncy head bobber of an introduction with a hook that could catch a fox. And it's here that we immediately need to discuss Fryer's style, how it differs from Chiasm's and also converges. Chiasm is decidedly more home-made, in the sense that I wouldn't expect your average artist to make the kind of musical choices she makes. Fryer is more inclined towards a traditional EDM style, though that's not to say his music is at all ordinary - He takes Chiasm's style and tinkers with it, flips it about. I've often said that whenever I listen to a Chiasm song, I can hear new things every time or rediscover something I forgot, and such is true here, but in a different way. Fryer makes music for Chiasm that is different, but not alien.
Another aspect of why Missed the Noise is so great is, with no surprise, Chiasm herself. Essentially Fryer's music acts as the facilitator of a playground for her voice and singing, and she sounds as fresh as she ever has with catchy, gripping vocal melodies. It feels like the inclusion of Fryer's music is pivotal, because it provides a new context for Chiasm's vocals and music. I also believe Chiasm touched up some of these tracks - I find beats, synths and instruments that feel like they have that signature stamp on it (examples being at the start of Missed). No matter the case, I don't think Chiasm's only input was vocal. Some highlights of her vocals though, include Intertwined, Noise, Yours, and Gone, where miss Rohn recounts her experiences of 2020 self-isolation. That is kinda a joke, but those lyrics don't lie.
I usually come up with some way to describe each piece that Chiasm comes up with as a place. This one also has a distinctive feeling - I think that if this album was a place, it would be watching over the ocean, and in the ocean is a reflection of your past - All your triumphs, mistakes, thoughts, hopes, dreams - And then a thought passes you - "What now?" Missed the Noise is absolutely terrific, it's an excelent jumping in point for those who want to get into this kind of music and a great reinvention of Chiasm's style. I highly recommend at least giving it a listen. You don't want to miss this noise.
One last thing, and this is completely unrelated. I'd like to shill for my friend's game. It's called Nightfall Hacker, it's a really cool turn based strategy game where you play as a white hat hacker, and you use programs to erase other programs. It's got 2 campaigns, about 100 levels, it's got open ended design so you can pretty much pick and choose how you go through each level. It's also got a level editor and a soundtrack composed by yours truly. I can't comment on the quality of the music objectively but I'd say it's pretty good. And it's only 7 quid. If you could go support my pal, I'd appreciate it a lot. It's on sale for 20% off right now so definitely take a look and see if it's the kind of game for you.

When you talk about an artist so often you might run out of things to say. Let this not be confused with repeatedly making the same album, because that's not what's happening. Each of this artist's works are unique, varied and interesting in their own way.

I DO NOT OWN CHIASM OR ANY OF THE MUSIC I FEATURE ON MY CHANNEL. THIS MUSIC IS SUBJECT TO CHIASM'S COPYRIGHT AND WILL BE REMOVED UPON REQUEST!Chiasm (Feat. John Fryer) - NoiseMr Red2021-03-14 | BUY "MISSED THE NOISE" HERE: chiasm.bandcamp.com/album/missed-the-noise
When you talk about an artist so often you might run out of things to say. Let this not be confused with repeatedly making the same album, because that's not what's happening. Each of this artist's works are unique, varied and interesting in their own way. But at a certain point you find yourself with nothing new to say about a particular style, and you end up repeating "I really like this". Well, that's the position I find myself in. Chiasm is an artist I have covered quite extensively, and thus it's very hard to actually write anything new about her. What else can I add? She's my favourite electronic producer, I would buy a toilet plunger from her if she put one
Enter John Fryer. Yes, that John Fryer. Ex-member of This Mortal Coil, John Fryer. Still need to listen to that band.
Forgive me for not knowing the history on this one, but I don't fully know how these two ended up collaborating. That being said, long time listeners will recognise his work on the In Hiding EP, with a remix of Locked In (Which was fucking great by the way). Then, I learned that Chiasm was collaborating with him further, with the EPs Away, Are You Okay and Intertwined. As a guy who's generally unfamiliar with John Fryer, I thought these EPs were good, but I didn't really click with the tracks that much. So now that Missed the Noise, the album that is the birthchild of this musical union has come forth, what do I think?
I think this kicks major ass.
The album starts with a bang and a banger, with Noise, a bouncy head bobber of an introduction with a hook that could catch a fox. And it's here that we immediately need to discuss Fryer's style, how it differs from Chiasm's and also converges. Chiasm is decidedly more home-made, in the sense that I wouldn't expect your average artist to make the kind of musical choices she makes. Fryer is more inclined towards a traditional EDM style, though that's not to say his music is at all ordinary - He takes Chiasm's style and tinkers with it, flips it about. I've often said that whenever I listen to a Chiasm song, I can hear new things every time or rediscover something I forgot, and such is true here, but in a different way. Fryer makes music for Chiasm that is different, but not alien.
Another aspect of why Missed the Noise is so great is, with no surprise, Chiasm herself. Essentially Fryer's music acts as the facilitator of a playground for her voice and singing, and she sounds as fresh as she ever has with catchy, gripping vocal melodies. It feels like the inclusion of Fryer's music is pivotal, because it provides a new context for Chiasm's vocals and music. I also believe Chiasm touched up some of these tracks - I find beats, synths and instruments that feel like they have that signature stamp on it (examples being at the start of Missed). No matter the case, I don't think Chiasm's only input was vocal. Some highlights of her vocals though, include Intertwined, Noise, Yours, and Gone, where miss Rohn recounts her experiences of 2020 self-isolation. That is kinda a joke, but those lyrics don't lie.
I usually come up with some way to describe each piece that Chiasm comes up with as a place. This one also has a distinctive feeling - I think that if this album was a place, it would be watching over the ocean, and in the ocean is a reflection of your past - All your triumphs, mistakes, thoughts, hopes, dreams - And then a thought passes you - "What now?" Missed the Noise is absolutely terrific, it's an excelent jumping in point for those who want to get into this kind of music and a great reinvention of Chiasm's style. I highly recommend at least giving it a listen. You don't want to miss this noise.
One last thing, and this is completely unrelated. I'd like to shill for my friend's game. It's called Nightfall Hacker, it's a really cool turn based strategy game where you play as a white hat hacker, and you use programs to erase other programs. It's got 2 campaigns, about 100 levels, it's got open ended design so you can pretty much pick and choose how you go through each level. It's also got a level editor and a soundtrack composed by yours truly. I can't comment on the quality of the music objectively but I'd say it's pretty good. And it's only 7 quid. If you could go support my pal, I'd appreciate it a lot. It's on sale for 20% off right now so definitely take a look and see if it's the kind of game for you.
“No matter what you accomplish in life, or whatever you convince yourself to be true, you will always see the same failure in the mirror, for time knows all thoughts and all deeds.”
This quote is from near the end of TreatsForBeasts’ short film, Perfect Little Dream. I find that film fascinating, along with his two others, their eccentricity is absurd, obtuse and often obscene. But enough of big dumb words, because they have released the soundtracks, something I was waiting for for a long while. Not only that, but they’ve released the music for four of their most popular videos. I can’t really explain or pontificate upon TreatsForBeasts very well, but their content and music means a lot to me. A tenebrous darkness pervades TreatsForBeasts’ videos and music as he explores what I can only describe as our reality from the lens of an alien. If I were to pin down a singular theme for TFB’s work, it’s that people are weird as fuck, and that the unfluid attempts to think of ourselves as normal and sane in this insane world are seeds of elitism, laziness and failure to understand the human condition.
His short films are beautiful, and such is his music – But although it doesn’t really take away from the music, I can’t help but feel like I recognise where some of his instruments come from. I think he uses FL Studio. I think he uses it pretty well too – It all feels awfully weird, yet strangely familiar. If you enjoy anything weird, out there, earnest and dark, treatsforbeasts: the music comes well recommended as well as 4 rewatches of his 3 movies, which will probably increase to 4 sometime soon. Also, listen to the Sanguinarius tracks, not just on this (which he lovingly packaged with his other material) but also on his album from 2017 Sin Nomine which like his treatsforbeasts work is uncompromisingly dark yet is more focused into a goth rock atmosphere.
Also, quick plug. I’ve released a soundtrack for free for my friend’s game, Nighfall Hacker. Please take a look, I hope it pleases you, and feel free to wishlist Nightfall Hacker on Steam as well!

“No matter what you accomplish in life, or whatever you convince yourself to be true, you will always see the same failure in the mirror, for time knows all thoughts and all deeds.”
This quote is from near the end of TreatsForBeasts’ short film, Perfect Little Dream. I find that film fascinating, along with his two others, their eccentricity is absurd, obtuse and often obscene. But enough of big dumb words, because they have released the soundtracks, something I was waiting for for a long while. Not only that, but they’ve released the music for four of their most popular videos. I can’t really explain or pontificate upon TreatsForBeasts very well, but their content and music means a lot to me. A tenebrous darkness pervades TreatsForBeasts’ videos and music as he explores what I can only describe as our reality from the lens of an alien. If I were to pin down a singular theme for TFB’s work, it’s that people are weird as fuck, and that the unfluid attempts to think of ourselves as normal and sane in this insane world are seeds of elitism, laziness and failure to understand the human condition.
His short films are beautiful, and such is his music – But although it doesn’t really take away from the music, I can’t help but feel like I recognise where some of his instruments come from. I think he uses FL Studio. I think he uses it pretty well too – It all feels awfully weird, yet strangely familiar. If you enjoy anything weird, out there, earnest and dark, treatsforbeasts: the music comes well recommended as well as 4 rewatches of his 3 movies, which will probably increase to 4 sometime soon. Also, listen to the Sanguinarius tracks, not just on this (which he lovingly packaged with his other material) but also on his album from 2017 Sin Nomine which like his treatsforbeasts work is uncompromisingly dark yet is more focused into a goth rock atmosphere.
