  1. 9.0 |   The 405

    This is not a record for the faint-hearted. Hell, it should come with a health warning

  2. 8.5 |   Crack

    Among Harakiri’s rabid parts come heavily-grooved, twisted melodies that are at times arresting and at others wistful and longing

    Runge’s productions aim for constant, exhausting impact over depth or subtlety
