Levrikon Shards of sound and speech combine for an unforgettable experience. Musically it reminds me of The Faust Tapes - all whiplash changes in rhythm and tone and melody, nothing lasting longer than a minute. The only anchor is Murphy's voice, soft, gentle, reciting poetry throughout that keeps the work cohesive. What a great album! Favorite track: Clothing Pattern Fragments Birthed From Her Mouth.
