"Listening to Loscil’s album, Monument Builders, I came to view it as a counterpoint to the equally intense dark ambient record Towards A Bleak Sun by Mesektet. While Mesektet wandered the desiccated, wasted glory of Egypt’s Pharaonic monuments, Loscil tours the damned works of modern mankind finding a similarly poisoned gigantism at work. Both call to mind Shelley’s desolate boast: “My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!”"
