Chicago’s Karl Meier & Johnathan Krohn aka Talker properly realise the project’s industrial potential with ‘Hari’, their debut LP for Downwards. Last spotted on a 12″ with expanded version of ‘Cut The Weight’ from the ‘Halha’ compilation, this appearance feels more affected, atmospheric, bitterly resolved. There’s eight tracks on offer, including the monstrous doom copulation of ‘Meniscus’ featuring label-mate, Kerridge, amongst the Eraserhead ambience of ‘Hari’ or the ghostly industrial romance of ‘Image Union’, whilst the bombed-out techno hulk of ‘Behemoth’ and the ‘floor-razing mission, ‘Frame Capture’ more than capably carry the dancefloor weight thru to Ventolin-style breakbeat workout, ‘Anthony’ and the gothic thunder of ‘Phalanx’.
