This scares and excites us

We don't know where Running Against The Knife fit in to the wider scheme of things, musically speaking.

If Angelo Badalamenti was writing a score to David Lynch's worst nightmare, he might come up with something along the lines of this Wisconsin one-man show's music. It scares us slightly - just look at that picture, he's so scary he needs censoring AND he's being kept in a garage. Dark doesn't even come close to doing justice here.

But of course there are good things to find in the dark. Things such as owls and stars and spaceships.

We are a bit obsessed with tracks 'The Need To An End' (terrifying and beautiful), 'Among The Things Only Hoped 4' (relentless, breathless and full of brilliant piano bits) and ‘Forever Trying But Never’ (almost a rave track, all incredible, almost genius).

Now all he needs to do is to find a film (or video-game) suitably dark to score. This man is amazing.
