Ah Skudge, there's something so satisfying with the name Skudge, it's a word you can shout with the same glee attached to techno or beer. Equally satisfying is the music Skudge have been treating us to in their short and mysterious career. This brand new twelve inch is no different and provides an auspicious insight into what the Swedish duo's forthcoming album might sound like. Filled to the brim with wall rattling machine funk most likely! "Below" sees Skudge in hypnotic form twisting an indecipherable and haunting vocal through around and between a bass heavy throb of droney synths and snapping metallic percussion. Rhythmically subtle in the way it undulates, this is Skudge showing a new side and most impressive it is. Complementing this is the dark and long rubbery, hypnotic menace of "Phantom" which seems designed with the sole purpose of destroying your motor functions. Skudge!
