Review by Romina

Album Review: Welcome Back 2 Cesspool by Phantasm Nocturnes If you’re into experimental electronic music that pushes boundaries, Welcome Back 2 Cesspool by Phantasm Nocturnes is an album worth diving into—or maybe crawling through. Released in 2013 on Red Venice Records, this UK & Europe-based project blends Musique Concrète, Power Electronics, Ambient, Noise, and Abstract styles into a chaotic yet strangely compelling sonic experience. It’s not for everyone, but if you like your music raw and unfiltered, it might just stick with you. The artwork by Kristian Cole sets the tone perfectly—a gritty, almost dystopian vibe that mirrors the disorienting sounds within. Tracks like “Smart Ass Toys (Circuit Bent Rudeness)” and “Projectile Emesis” are standouts for very different reasons. “Smart Ass Toys” grabs you right away with its glitchy, circuit-bent chaos. The track feels like someone took apart a Speak & Spell and reassembled it while drunk—it’s playful but also kinda menacing. There’s something about how it balances absurdity with aggression that makes it unforgettable. Meanwhile, “Projectile Emesis” hits hard with relentless noise textures and an oppressive atmosphere. You can practically feel the bile rising in your throat as the layers of distortion build up. It’s gross, sure, but weirdly cathartic too. What sticks with me most about this album isn’t any one track—it’s the overall mood. Listening to Welcome Back 2 Cesspool feels like wandering through some kind of industrial wasteland where everything is slightly off-kilter. It’s abrasive, yes, but there’s also beauty hidden in the chaos if you’re willing to dig for it. And honestly, I think that’s what makes it so intriguing. One thing’s for sure—this album doesn’t hold back. Whether you love it or hate it, it’ll leave a mark. Fun fact? After listening to this, I started hearing random mechanical noises around my house at night. Coincidence? Maybe. Or maybe Phantasm Nocturnes opened a portal to another dimension. Who knows? But hey, that’s the power of good art, right?
