Review from Musique Machine by Roger Batty:

Drowning In The Wall is one of the more recent releases from one of the walled noise scenes most talented figures Elektrostal, Russia based Sergey Pakhomov- here under his Train Cemetery banner. The release consists of an art edition CDR( or digital download), that features an hour-long ‘wall’ of creatively textured & layered noise, which is all wrapped in a wonderful defined & detailed production- so you can make out ever element & pattern within this wall-noise masterwork.

Apparently, the self-titled track here was processed both digital and analog- and you certainly get the feeling that the ‘wall’ is a skilful blend of organic & digital textures giving the whole thing a feeling of a decidedly heady crossbreed. The track begins with a blended ‘wall’ of the following elements- spaced cable judder, wooden spoke like cluttering, spaced snaps & pops, and a trundling wheel like texture. As the ‘wall’ progresses Pakhomov skilfully & masterful adds in other subtle layers of texture, as well as very slightly adjusting the existing textures- we get a beaded & weathered organic drone, different patternation cluttering, more defined fire like pops, crisp grain like descending rattles, etc- but through-out he keeps the original textures running- really managing an astonishing balancing & mixing act- so you can hear every detail. If I was to trying to describe what this track brought to mind I’d say been stuck inside a turning, circling & revolving structure- that’s built from wood, stone, fire & technology- as the ‘wall’ progresses the structure slowly but sure grows more complex, nuanced & startling- leaving you, when the tracks finished, feeling both impressed & more than a little mentally weary as your brain has really been working overtime to fully chart the many layers of texture present here.

As mentioned in my introduction the physical edition of this release comes in the form of art release- as does all the releases on Bangkok based label. The CDR comes in a jewel case, and this features black & orange spray-painted inner- the cover takes in an ancient wall with eyeballs, teeth, a skull, and hand coming out of it- on the wall it’s self is a gold-framed religious painting with Christ on the cross. The jewel case is stuck into the back of a canvas- which features on its front lumps & smears of white & gold paint against a plain black paint backdrop. There’s also stuck on wooden strips featuring the hand numbering- mines 17 of 20, and the abbreviate project name & it's released name. So certainly a distinctive looking packaging.

In finishing Drowning In The Wall is certainly another very masterful & highly skilful example of detailed & creative wall matter from Pakhomov- showing once again why he’s so well respected in the scene. Well worth checking out, even in it’s digital only release.
