DESCRIPTION FROM CRUCIAL BLAST:
   Underground UK amp-melter Mike Vest is fast turning into a virtual cottage industry, producing a number of heavy, outré projects that range from the crushing spaced-out psychedelic sludge of Bong to the oppressive lysergic doomnoise of Master Slave and Ultrashitinferno's ear-raping Hanatarash influenced noisecore. And then there's Haikai No Ku, a band that Vest shares with members of black metallers Auldfued and psychnoise ensemble Oppenheimer, which pays homage to the band's Japanese psych obsessions by integrating them into a crushingly heavy slow-motion sound that often threatens to roll over you with the same elephantine weight as Bong. Even the title of the band's second album of titanic instrumental psychedelia sounds like it could have come off of PSF Records; Ultra High Dimensionality opens with "Dead In The Temple", the song slowly billowing out in a thunderous roar of feedback-doused guitar howl, the rhythm section slowly plodding through a thick fog of psychedelic amplifier shriek and acid-tinged effects, lugubriously unfolding into a massive slow-motion garage psych jam, a crushing wall of Velvets-on-ludes immensity that feels like some classic Japanese space rock a la Les Rallizes Denudes or Out-era White Heaven being slowed down to a suffocatingly doomed crawl. The guitarists are cranked up to ungodly volume levels, rumbling the floor beneath your feet as the vaguely menacing, wah-drunk guitar solos start to snake through the song's utterly stoned fug, blaring with blazing Crazy Horse-esque guitar twang and doped-up riffs lumbering in a daze, heading straight into the abyss.
   Early on, you can hear that there's a slightly more structured approach from some of the previous Haikai No Ku stuff, a lot of which seemed to lurk in an abstract black haze that nodded towards Haino's expansive improv guitar blowouts with Fushitsusha. The band brings a distinctly British heaviness to their neo-psychedelic crawl, though; the droning, elliptical bludgeon of tracks like "Strung Out Beyond The Rim" weld that howling psychedelia to a sludgy, lumbering power that also recalls the post-industrial crush of the HeadDirt label and bands like Loop and IIIrd Gatekeeper-era Skullflower. The rest of Ultra High Dimensionality just gets tougher and noisier and heavier, piling on brain-flattening mountains of searing feedback and churning lysergic guitar noise, wailing blues-addled solos winding infinitely around the crushing ur-riffs and surges of Sabbathian might, as a storm of howling amp violence blossoms throughout each song's powerful assemblage of riffs, transforming into endless elephantine grooves that rumble through plumes of pungent hash-smoke.
   Released on 180 gram vinyl, and presented in a cool screen-printed jacket with download code.   © CRUCIAL BLAST
