Unsettling, paranoid, post-industrial wasteland: if you’re looking for a soundtrack for your worst Children of Men nightmares, you can’t do much better than Amon Tobin. Though he’s dabbled with a wide array of motifs, Tobin’s recent soundtrack for the Tom Clancy super-spy game Splinter Cell 3 has cemented a reputation for grimly cinematic, sample-heavy electronica. If the Bloodstone single is any indication of what to expect from the upcoming The Foley Room, due in March, then Tobin’s latest material is set to bring that cinematic experience to an entirely new level.

“Esther’s” is like a medical bag filled with razor sharp knives, sitting alone on a gurney underneath a flickering surgery lamp in some abandoned eastern European army hospital. It seethes with barely contained malice and tension, something you don’t get much of these days from popular music. If tracks like “Four Ton Mantis” were your personal Amon Tobin faves, then you’ll find plenty to like on Bloodstone.
