At times lush and layered, at others minimal and haunting, Closer to the Small\/Dark\/Door's breadth is the result of years in the underground. Although quite heavy, the album employs far more atmosphere and ambiance than it's contemporaries. Acoustic\/classical instrument tracks conjure visions of Mogwai conducted by Ennio Morricone, while programming-centric tracks imagine Swans personnel falling hard for a Mediterranean girl who listens to a lot of Godflesh and Jesu. Nothing fits snugly into place, though-Vanessa Van Basten pushes genre boundaries in more than one direction. Thankfully, these veterans know the importance of \"too much\" vs \"not enough.\" Closer to the Small\/Dark\/Door is a truly unique 50 minutes of rock music.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Porzellangasse \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Putana \u003cbr\u003e1.3 L'uomo Che Comprava Il Tempo \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Fuck the Best, Take the Rest \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Domio '95 \u003cbr\u003e1.6 La Selva Dell'orba \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Scolopendra \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Untitled \u003cbr\u003e1.9 L'affetto Non Serve\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
