Macronympha Kanchenjunga - Therapeutic Memories

Review by Michael Lan

Therapeutic Memories by Macronympha Kanchenjunga is an experimental album that pushes the boundaries of noise music. The album consists of seven tracks, each of which is a journey into a world of sound that is both chaotic and meditative. The album's title suggests that it is meant to be a therapeutic experience, and indeed, the music has a hypnotic quality that can be both soothing and unsettling.

The album opens with "Infinite Regression," a track that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The track is built around a repeating loop of distorted noise, which is gradually augmented with layers of additional noise. As the track progresses, it becomes more and more intense, until it reaches a climax of chaotic, cacophonous sound.

Other tracks on the album are more subdued, such as "Eternal Return," which features a haunting melody played on a distorted guitar. The track is accompanied by a slow, pulsing rhythm that creates a sense of unease. "The Unfathomable" is another standout track, featuring a hypnotic, repetitive beat that is overlaid with layers of distorted noise.

Summary by Michael Lan

Therapeutic Memories is a challenging but rewarding listen. The album requires the listener to be open to new sounds and experiences, but for those willing to take the journey, it offers a unique and fascinating glimpse into the world of experimental noise music.
