Collecting two songs from the long o/p ultra-limited lathe-cut released in spring 2017 on NZ Independent Woman imprint, 'Broken and Beaten in 5/8 Time, Part One - Beaten' and 'Broken and Beaten in 5/8 Time, Part Two - Broken', plus two previously unreleased tracks exclusive to this release. Generally more refined than previous Kleistwahr work, the pieces here catch Gary Mundy (also of Ramleh and Broken Flag Records) furrowing his distinct and recognisable take on a kinda contemporary psychedelia with dystopian leanings. Also nodding towards the fug generated by certain rautrock' groups whilst retaining threads of those uncompromising power-noise surges he built his reputation on, this is music guaranteed to take you to new spaces before forcing you to nervously look over your shoulder.
