In Hindu scripture, the lingam is the beginning-less and endless cosmic pillar symbolizing the infinite nature of Shiva, and such infinity can be sensed in Download s latest album, entitled LingAM. The duo of cEvin Key and Phil Western use their impressive repertoire of skills, synthesizers, and sequencers to create a transcendent work of experimental electronica. Analog squelches and percussive grooves blend seamlessly with elements of trance, noise, IDM, and postindustrial to create a beat-driven epic. Centered, as with all Download releases, around a pillar of percussion and rhythm, LingAM stands as an enchanting sonic expression.
