Side A - The DrillerSide B - PsychogeistAlright, I finally got my record player up here (and got a rca->minijack cable so I can rip vinyl :D). So, as promised, I will give my two cents on the Wolf Eyes - The Driller 12". First off, I had already heard 'The Driller' (since it's included on Human Animal), but it still sounds pretty badass on vinyl. It's one of my favorite tracks off the new album. It starts out slow and foreboding (once you hear the drill whirring, you know something bad's gonna eventually happen), and ends in a ensemble of (brutal, but still accessible/structured) heavy, crushing bass hits, tormented screams, deep fuzz and painful drill screeches. It reminds me of how damn scary going to the dentist was as a kid. I hate to say it but the b-side, Psychogeist, is really kind of boring compared to The Driller. It's alot of slow repitition, which isn't bad (William Basinksi is a genius), but it just doesn't feel right after listening to The Driller. The Driller left me wanting more aural violence, and Psychogeist simply didn't deliver that. It does a good job of delivering a nice, deep, creepy vibe, and really does pay off in the end as it grows noisier. I guess the bottom line on Psychogeist is that I do enjoy the song, but I think it would be better if it was placed with a group of slower, 'creepier' songs (the Asylum Style cd-rs come to mind).
