Gloom Prophet's music is like taking Quaaludes and reading the Book of Revelations all night. There is something both frightening and pacifying in his unique, post-dubstep soundscapes. They arouse both anxiety and numb docility simultaneously.
The songs are dense with hypnotic grooves and layers of spliced vocals that sound like someone singing in tongues. Gloom's pulsing, hazy atmospheres are both ghostly and comforting. His beats are relaxed and eerie, built from samples of mouth clicks and swishes of water that could, at another time, earn John Cage's approval.
