Album Review: Clark - Clark

StarStarStarStar

"It’s a hell of a listen."

Mercurial producer Clark returns with a self-titled follow-up to 2012’s Iradelphic and it’s a hell of a listen. Clark takes huge strides forward deep into Berghain territory, trapping us in a hall of mirrors using cold techno constructs and an echo chamber of icy ambient chord loops.

This release is far more direct and immediate than previous work, with his glitch-y IDM signatures tempered to make room for far heavier dance tracks. Those looking for his more insular stuff will be surprised, and those looking for brains behind some foot shuffling will be delighted.
