released December 28, 2022

''This eerily hypnotic and gorgeously spellbinding 2-song EP consists of two sound collages - two dark swirling whirlwinds of sorrowful choral singing, funereal drones, ominous field recordings, mournful classical music and haunted ambience.
'The Broken Heart of Man' plays out like a mesmerizing 12-minute long movie - a dark broody drama perhaps, or a lonesome character study.
It's a sweeping sonic exploration of the dark side of the human condition. And it has Murray's signature stamp all over it - the misty soundscapes, the dreamy melancholic surreality, the profound loneliness and the deep aching sense of loss.
A dark, painful and beautiful EP. Highly recommended.'' - Fog Songs

''Tears-in-the-eyes beautiful. Otherworldly.'' - Heresiarch Reviews

''Both tracks form a powerful message that brings about feelings of sorrow, guilt, loss, and all of the other facets of human existence that we would prefer to ignore. If Dostoyevsky were a composer rather than a novelist, this is what he may well have created.'' - Fringes of Sound

''Bittersweet, heartbreaking song-based compositions, with human voices breaking through the mist. It's beautiful stuff, as is all of their work'' - Forest Punk

'''The Broken Heart of Man' is by far the most mournful drone 7″ I’ve ever heard. It’s incredible. Sound collage meets drone like a ton of melancholy bricks. The piano and cello adds a ton of emotion and the choir samples/synth lie heavily on the listener’s brain and heart. Damn, this is impressive.'' - The Far Out Fox
