Split from US-based pandemic themed noise project Bacillus and noise veteran The Rita released on the latter's Lake Shark Harsh Noise label last year (possibly some left to buy if you go here). On his site, McKinlay describes the Bacillus side in the following way: "The legendary Bacillus envelopes himself in the world of medical radiation with some of his most dense material yet." For The Rita side: "The Rita observes the ocean of Solaris while processing pre-recorded deep ocean samples." This combination of themes is fascinating and, as I have mentioned here before, it's good to see McKinlay returning to his oceanic themes in favour of another foot fetish-themed album. Alongside the description, the following text is given:
"Radiation induced ionizations also directly damage the cellular
molecules and can indirectly produce free radicals, which are derived
from the ionization of the water component of the cells, which then
attach themselves to the mutated genes, damaging it and causing cell
death."
"Genius and mediocrity alike are dumbfounded by the
teeming diversity of the oceanic formations of Solaris; no man has ever
become genuinely conversant with them."
"The nails, still
surrounded by traces of clotted blood, had regrown. There was a pink
scar in the hollow of her palm, but even the scar was healing,
disappearing in front of my eyes."
