Atta's Apartment Slated For Demolition
Atta’s Apartment Slated for Demolition finds Dominick Fernow’s Vatican Shadow project at a crossroads. Originally released in 2012, the album still has the blank-eyed, cold, hypnotic minimalism of his earliest albums that made Vatican Shadow one of the most unlikely breakout artists of the noise underground in the early 2010s. It’s got the cryptic yet provocative title, in this case alluding to Mohamed Atta, the ringleader behind the 9/11 hijackings. It’s got the paranoid forever-war album art a…
