But what it lacks in quantity, it makes up for in quality. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=wuUogJNJRzs\" target=\"_blank\">\u201cInverted\u201d<\/a> emerges out of a murky haze of analogue synths and a rumbling bass, builds tension, breaks down into a schizophrenic beat, and then leaves you wondering what the hell just happened. \u201cOn The Ice\u201d plays off of the kind of peculiar melody that made <em>Ask The Dust<\/em> so original and shows off Lorn\u2019s ability to carve out an atmosphere you can sink into without realizing. \u00a0Another one of Lorn\u2019s talents is his ability to produce extremely dark and heavy moods without bringing down the energy of his tracks. I think talent exists because his beats are just so badass. \u201cBury Your Brother\u201d starts with a marching band\u2019s drumline kicking your teeth in, then digs in with a ghostly synth hook. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=YUInLQpFg24\" target=\"_blank\">\u201cDebris,\u201d<\/a> the title track, is a different kind of animal. I think this may be one of Lorn\u2019s most affective and emotional songs, leaving the drums behind for a more intimate and pared down experience. Then it ends after just a couple minutes. Damn.
