Informant by elliot.
Instrumental and emotionally charged, Informant explores themes of societal disintegration through shifting sonic textures. It drifts between fragile ambient passages and abrasive, distorted crescendos — a surrealist protest with no words.
Inspired by the fractures of modern life, the album acts as a kind of dystopian mirror, quietly reflecting greed, corruption, and vulnerability.
