ブッチブチでミッチミチのヘビーサイケ。ドローン並に塗りつぶされた音で満たされてるのに、聴き疲れない絶妙な質感で素晴らしいです。おすすめ。
“The idea behind Dark Patterns was to explore the theme of power and manipulation through technology. It’s an idea that makes people feel uneasy, so we wanted to capture that musically by creating a feeling of anxious energy using fuzzed guitars, driving drums and crunchy bass. The narrative itself plays on the design concept of Dark Patterns and explores it from two different perspectives - from those who use it and from those who are used by it. A husky vocal represents the former to give the feeling of secrecy and darkness, while a louder vocal represents the latter to give a sense of frustration and awakening. The story is ultimately one of redemption and of breaking free from the mold” – Rhys
