Press Reviews
PENDRO. The Oxide Heresies. Fflint Central BLAS 002.
"Broadcasting live straight from the nth dimension comes Pendro.
Voice samples,synth loops and sound effects rock and shift your
senses on this amazing album. In many respects, the term music
here is probably stretched (with the exception of one or two 'samples').
A weird landscape unfolds as you trek across numbers such as
Telepathic Ferris Wheel, where you're gently prodded with memories
of Hellraiser (II) and awfully dark places where even Peter Cushing
would shit his pants. Difficult at first hearing because this stuff is so
different and, yes, brave. It's obviously one of those albums that will
either work, or leave you wondering what's going on - a bit like an aural
rape. An electronic landscape haunted by dying sodium lamps is painted
via the track Tazoa Torture Temple, and a vaguely familiar cymbal riff kicks
off Birds Love To Prey (although it doesn't say whether these are the feathered
kind!) where your ears simply can't keep hold of the cutting and pasting of the
sound samples. Stockhausen meets Charles Ives on Fugitives On Ice - staggeringly dark and inventive, and it will take a few spins afore the true
colours begin to shine ".

PENDRO Infusorium (Fflint Central) BLAS 007
"Album number two from the one man Pendro. A demented odyssey of
warped records, chiming atmospherics, and hiccupping robot armies.
Squiggly atoms of sound careen wildly between waves of what sound
like groaning bowed metal. Nice ".
