Album Review: Per Purpose - Circle The Stains

Unhinged in almost every facet of their being, Brisbane's Per Purpose still somehow manage to weave a heady melodicism through the fractured Own Accord on Circle The Stains. Whilst Glen Schenau's bent-vowel vocalisms still evoke a clapped-out Gareth Liddiard, the band is more synonymous with his band's moniker – an atonal, jerking drone of bent strings, smashed beats and frenetic bass lines.
