WIREPULLER by UURYDON

I’ve never been able to explain to someone what it’s like to experience the trigger to and the start of an anxiety attack, but I think UURYDON might have me covered. Outside stimuli threatens us from all sides on the new album WIREPULLER, as we are slowly led to question how external any of these experiences are. Uncomfortable, disturbing, combative, this record throws chaotic musical elements together with a pile of apocalyptic narrative samples, creating a winding pathway through the speaker’s experiences, thoughts, and their declining ability to distinguish the two. WIREPULLER presents a masterclass in empathy, showing us the abject horror that hides in plain sight for some neurodivergent people, forcing us to sit with them in their reality for a few excruciating moments. With this incredible triumph of expressionist art, UURYDON has realized the goals of many of those before them by copying and pasting a human consciousness into an external medium.
