Review by Henry J Daniels

33 Purgatories by Linekraft: A Sonic Trip Through Industrial Chaos Alright, buckle up, because 33 Purgatories by Linekraft is not your grandma’s playlist. Released in 2018 under the German label Zaetraom, this album dives headfirst into the noisy depths of electronic music with an industrial twist that’ll make your ears feel like they’ve been through a car wash… backwards. It’s intense, it’s messy, and honestly? That’s what makes it kinda brilliant. Masahiko Okubo wears all the hats here—electronics, percussion, vocals—you name it, he did it. And let me tell ya, his fingerprints are all over this chaotic masterpiece. The album packs six tracks, but two stood out enough to lodge themselves permanently in my brain: “Wergild Mania” and “Mutant Embryo.” “Wergild Mania” hits you like a caffeine overdose at 3 AM. It’s relentless, clanging beats paired with eerie synth work that feels like someone took a horror movie score and gave it a shot of adrenaline. There’s something hypnotic about how the layers build up, almost daring you to look away (or I guess, stop listening). Spoiler alert: you won’t. It’s one of those tracks where halfway through, you’re either fully onboard or questioning every life choice that led you here. Either way, mission accomplished. Then there’s “Mutant Embryo,” which sounds exactly like its title suggests—a freaky science experiment gone wrong. This track leans hard into noise territory, full of distorted wails and mechanical grinds that somehow still manage to groove. If robots ever decided to throw a rave in a haunted factory, this would be their anthem. By the end, you’re left wondering if you just survived an auditory assault or witnessed the birth of a new genre. Maybe both? The other tracks—“White Junk,” “Profane,” “Purgatory,” and “33”—round out the experience nicely, though they don’t quite hit the same WTF-level memorability as the first two. They’re solid, mind you, but more like supporting characters in a movie dominated by scene-stealing leads. What really sticks with me about 33 Purgatories isn’t just the music—it’s the vibe. Listening to this album feels like being let in on some secret underground movement where chaos reigns supreme. Sure, it might not be everyone’s cup of tea (or espresso martini), but for those who dig experimental noise wrapped in industrial grit, it’s gold. So yeah, hats off to Linekraft for crafting something so unapologetically weird and wonderful. My only question after finishing the album was…do mutant embryos actually have soundtracks? Asking for a friend.
