Released on Absurd Exposition on 5 August 2022. The following text is from the label.

From Nova Scotia: Darcy Spidle continues experimenting with the jaw harp via his chik white [sic] project. A stripped-down, natural, "man and his instrument" approach--no noise or other electronic supplements, yet still with moments of close-up, high-gain, blow-outs, and perfectly suited to be residing opposite Boros' naturally un-natural vocalizations.
