Nice review on “Edge of The Universe by Chain D.L.K

“…the sound of Cluster Lizard is slightly different: the harsh concreteness and the solidity of some of their solo outputs and the riverbed limestone where this harshness coexisted with steamy dark ambient clouds get sharpened by the apparent intent of this release, whose aim seems to be the attempt of propelling listener’s mind towards the (other than metaphysical) edges of known or imaginable universe. I like to imagine that the abstract clip I saw the opening “Being Alive Isn’t Everything”, whose background seems to be taken by a simple cam pointing the journey in an obscure gallery through a window screen, mirrors both the dim light of its sonorities and the moment that sparkled the authors’ sonic journey, as if the anguish of our terrestrial lives and the related search for escapism could be the gate to boundless explorations. Such an apparent contradiction seems to be the emotional framework, lingering as the shading of a burnt memory over the whole listening, where this vivid apparent contradiction could also explain the harmonic coexistence of really “terrestrial” (and clashing) entities and ethereal ones, where the first ones get often harmonised to the latter ones on tracks like “Fractal Core”, “Afterlife Drift” or “Biomass of Beauty”. Highly recommended sonic trip!”
