Unconscious Country by Amp
"Released as an aside to the debut album, Szygy and imminent second album proper (which will be released by Ochre), Unconscious Country comprises two lengthy excursions through realms simultaneously beautiful and restless. Curdled synth lines, rolls of iridescence, contoured tones, neon pulses, tidal dissonance, heaving drum loops, and the sound of a distant world spinning off its axis, all combine to create a remarkable reshaping of the Amp/A.M.P. studio canon. Rife with contrasts, this album reveals an underbelly of new possibilities wholly recommended to the more discerning ear."

MC Strong:
"Somewhere between shoegazing and the Bristol 'Trip Hop' sound, AMP had created a work of sweeping soundscapes, echoing ambience and waves of feedback."
