Osseointegration

Helle Raud's titanium dark wave — the sound of metal learning to be bone. Named for the moment the implant and the skeleton stop being two things.

The Weld

Neue Deutsche Welle rhythm guitar under a rockabilly slap, then everything corrodes. The bridge is the surgery; the last chorus is the healing that never fully finishes.

Note

Recorded cold, in a stairwell, so the decay had somewhere to fall.
