Description
It�s been five years since his debut �Severant� - �Slow Knife� seems to return to where �Severant� left off, but with the intricate sound design of last year�s haunting EP �Assertion Of A Surrounding Presence� subsumed into the compositions, making them more exacting and beautifully crafted.�Slow Knife� is almost two albums; the first half, according to Kuedo, invokes the seduction of the city, taking the music of Michael Mann�s �Manhunter� as a cue, with the latter half being inspired by the bloody starscapes and voodoo wilderness of films such as �Angel Heart�, �Night Of The Hunter� and more recently the �True Detective� series. Both halves of the album are also in thrall to Mica Levi�s inspiring �Under The Skin� soundtrack, especially in the turbulence of the mid-section.
