An assemblage of contemptible synths, forlorn leads, throbbing bass, vengeful pads, forsaken effects, and diabolical percussion conspire to corrode your composure and supplant it with unruly dread. The treachery of tension created by these dismal sounds possesses the capacity to undermine one's own equanimity, leaving only hysteria and fear in its aftermath. As a result, self-preservation becomes the primary objective.
