Review

Welcome return from erstwhile Oslo 

punk David Gurrik, a.k.a. Human Inferno, with a killer slab of advanced caveman electronics for Entr’acte. Gurrik was last
spotted as Human Inferno on his outré label, Sonmoi, in a class split with Lasse Marhaug, and Medication marks his 

most substantial output in many years.
Away from his involvement in “school politics” and the “local community”,

it’s probably fair to say that music is 

a controlled vent for his life less normal, whether singing deadpan about visiting the psychiatrist with his wife over blunted pulses, growls and tempered white noise in Medication #1, or clashing cryptic 

lyrics with throbbing noise techno fundamentals worthy of the weirdest ‘floors in Medication #3. But it’s clear 

that middle age and kids haven’t blunted his punkish roots, they may be a bit 

more obfuscated and wisened, but there’s still a brutish intent to these tracks, albeit patiently refined with an amorphous, viscous effect at best in the B-side-spanning It’s About Time to Go,

which comes across like he's making 

the best of a monotonous, stygian trudge to the shops for muesli and juice for
the weans.
