Gerade ist eine neue CDr des obskuren texanischen Lärmprojektes Asat erschienen. “Overcast” ergänzt seine niemals allzu statischen Noise-Wände mit verschiedenen alptrauminduzierenden Details, seien dies unerwartete Brüche und allerlei Sounds, die an Schmerzensschreie und andere ungute Geräusche erinnern. Abhorrend AD, die das Album in einer limitierten CDr-Edition und zum Download herausbringen, bringen es auf den Punkt: “Asat uses a variety of analog, digital and sampled sounds to

formulate massive compositions that build upon elements of Dark Ambient and Harsh Noise with an overtly nightmarish atmosphere to all of it. You never can quite predict what will happen next and with each new transition the tracks just get better and better as they unfold. Apparently the artist has been making noise for the past 20 years or so, and you can definitely hear that experience put to good use in these five heavy and haunting Post-Industrial tracks”.
