I second this suggestion. I'm really not at all into the manic sounds most
often attributed to Digital Hardcore (Atari Teenage Riot, etc), but this
album really surprised me. Sure, it has its share of hard, dark DnB. This
isn't necessarily the reason to check out the record though. Instead, check
out the few epic ambient pieces such as "Opium." Staying true to this
particular song's title, the music just kind of drifts with an eerie, smoky
sense of ease. These ambient songs are just plain disturbing with their
subtle yet foreboding aura -- the sort of music you play after murdering
someone or something to that effect.
