A surprising collection of tunes from veteran bass player Joey Vera on his "A Chinese Firedrill" project.

7 songs all with different musical foundations, tied together by strong atmospheres and songs interlocking; as well as some subtle details in the soundscape repeated throughout.

Mainly experimental in style, but the heavy use of synths as well as the laid-back vocal style here gives this release strong similarities to OSI - one of numerous bands and projects Joey Vera has bean involved in. The blend of metal tinged and ambient elements also resemble this other side project he's been involved in.

Recommended to fans of OSI, especially those that liked their second release "Free".
