Noises in the Wall is the sixth studio album by American experimental music band Vampire Rodents, released on November 11, 2017 by Rodentia Productions.
Reception[edit]
The album received positive write-ups, with reviewers praising the wide scope of musical genres and styles such as the frantic industrial collage of "Good Humour", the eight-minute composition "Cyborghostsex" and Vahnke's interpretation of Schubert's "Piano Trio No. 2".[1] The ten part suite "The Zombie Dolls" was particularly noted for expanding the band's range into cinematic music territory.[2]
Track listing[edit]
