The final CD release from Disaro, before the whole White Ring vinyl drama unravelled and burried the label. I remember Disaro at the time had other albums scheduled for release incl. Pregnancy Pact, Lay Bac, Nike7up, Yusuf B, Party Trash and Nguzunguzu.

<3 is like a tripped-out cosmic journey to ones mind, filled with slow drumming, wailing vocals, and space-stretching synth drones that make you feel like you're listening to some tribal-psych Julee Cruise album. HIQC was always on the ethereal end of the witchhouse spectrum, with her warped transmissions enjoyed best with the video visuals of her shows. Tracks like "KJV", "Old Age" or "Rainbow Connection" are perfect to illustrate how a bridge could exist back in 2010 between her works, SALEM and Void for example. I also love the weirder, dragged songs here, the twisted "Smile Now.." and screwed "Barre Baby". This album needs a while to get into, but once you do you'll love it.
