Amlux (Tape, Original Cover)

Certainly Amlux is a very cohesive and well-constructed piece; starting more softly than usual, the record slowly builds into the chaotic harsh sound that Merzbow is well known for, but this time adding some actual recognizable music elements (like rhythms), and constructing various surprisingly well-texture soundscapes, that made of this album a more focused and immersive piece that effectively keeps engaged during 40+ music of primal noise. Records like this are the ones that show Merzbow skills of creating a great piece of noise with surprising sound engineering.
