(Felthat Reviews) What a beauty of outsider, freak, out-of-bound gem! Releases as a DL and a cassette by long-running Bryan's Day Public Eyesore label and it certainly adds up to a bit lo-fi or no-fi atmosphere of the album - hissy textures that contain certain mad quality to the commotion that is present in this material. Three long tracks that is probably not enough to be a representative of what Death Pyre can do in terms of electronic or I would even add - elctroacoustics that this album can fall into as far as any categories are concerned. How to approach this album? Imagine a lo-fi noise uneven and sharp edges and surfaces that build up the ambience but in a narrative of certain amount of rush and neurotic commotion. It could act up as a diary of a OCD person in a therapy, it could be a dairy of understanding prompts that your tormented mind picks up from the reality that altogether is an dystopian nightmare and an utter fiasco. Make up your own mind by just listening. I know I will be coming back to it again and again. - Hubert Heathertoes

(Babysue) The first cassette is Concatenation by Death Pyre. This band is a combo or sorts featuring the talents of the goth duo Ampyre and the post-industrial/noise outfit Death Factory. Not intended for dull listeners and wimpsters, the album is a pure excursion into the world of genuine inspiration. - Don Seven

(Disaster Amnesiac) With Labor Day occurring in a couple of days, and the heat here in Tucson phasing from its almost unbearable phase to more tolerable intensities, Disaster Amnesiac is reminded that Summer is getting to its later times. I am also reminded of this fact by having reached the bottom of a stack of product from the Public Eyesore/eh? Records nexus, a stack which I plowed through during the recent hot months of the year. Chicago/St. Louis Goth/Noise/Experimental groups Death Factory and Ampyre merged their talents and visions in order to release this cassette, Concatenation, as Death Pyre, and it's as out there as any other of the releases issuing from Bryan Day's two long running labels. It's an album that's a bit more on the Tech-ey side of the Noise spectrum as it evinces production features that sound perhaps a bit more studio crafted with the attendant control resulting from that. I have heard Concatenation as an Industrial release of sorts, but am not sure if the people who played its sounds would agree. Reasons for my view include the sounds of hard edged electronics pushed by synthetic percussion on the first track In Absentia, the presence of abstract, murky vocals sounding out from side B's The Fruit of Our Labors, detuned guitar abstractions on International Talking 2, and just the overall "from the caves" vibes from all three of the pieces on this cassette. Ring modules and various other non-standard sound sources provide the melodies on Concatenation, such as they are, and Death Pyre's conjurations of very effective blends of percussive accents within them. This is a release that will delight those looking for wide open, long form abstraction that is pushed to the perceptual breaking point. Not exactly easy to endure but what in life really does have that quality, anyway? Death Pyre or its two foundational groups must surely be pummeling live acts, no? - Mark Pino
