Love the nasty tones.  So fat and adds some tasty darkness to it.

1. Long live the crunch, you autechre you.
2. Wish I didn't blow the autechre namedrop on the first one like an idiot, this is some pen expers snare work.
3. My favorite of the first-impression listens, love the inharmonic tones throughout.
4. Fuckin' bad-ass.

I agree w/ fetalface ordering, but I also suspect in a way there's a learning / understanding process in the work here. I think the 3rd one is the most musically complete one, I absolutely love the 4th one and that sparsening towards the end. I wonder if the assessment would be the same if the order was 4321 or 3214. Just thinking out loud.

3 & 4 were my favorite. #3 has a good rise and fall in intensity and I like the low growl as a backdrop. #4 has my favorite sound choices and a nice ethereal quality.
