Press Reviews Each of the four songs on this demo is crystalline and razor-edged, biting out to the world with concrete angst. Siouxsie, thefirst track, starts out with pulsing percussive sound and swelling synths leading toward an enervating techno/industrial core thatdives and resurfaces throughout the song amidst the original pulse and swell. Pete's vocals are breathy and echo along againstthis backdrop, fuelled by the recurring grind of guitar. The second cut, Truth, is by stark contrast more low-key, with Pete'svocals layered over atmospheric keys...until it kicks in with a relentless and striking guitar hook, setting up for the retreat andadvance of the utter angst one would expect from Tool. Wall sweeps in with noise, roaring chords and an omnipresentrepetitive synth-beat and Pete plies a new attack, with more throaty and gutteral vocals, spitting forth his dare to "tear down hiswall," all together creating a monumental piece with a regal tone and cadence. The demo wraps up with Can't Take Any More,a definite strong note, as its pace and aggression leave one hungering for more of a sound that, as a whole, is truly unique toSacred Confinement.
