about

These recordings are an exercise in the re-acquisition of time from the inertia of daily life.
An attempt to adorn one's personal world with some kind of meaning beyond the everyday.
Semi-subdued introverted loops / improvisations / synths / concrete floors / broken drums / mistakes / …. failures of one subjective kind or another.

Side B (The Bird Ceased To Be Articulate) was originally recorded for "Ears Have Ears" on fbi radio in Sydney, Australia.

Review from YELLOW GREEN RED:

Very cool under-the-radar debut here from Suburban Cracked Collective, the name Shaun Leacy (of Newcastle, Australia) has given to his secluded avant murmurings. It’s fairly inscrutable music, but allow me to try to, umm, scrute it – it’s what I love to do! There’s what seems to be live percussion (a normal drum kit struck with abnormal mallets?), stringed instruments (maybe a guitar), and sparse electronics that seem to be knocking on death’s door, and Leacy weaves it all together in an understated and alluring fashion. The sonic rhythms of first-world convenience shaped into little instrumental “songs” that no one will ever hear, except here I am, hearing them right now. One might file it under “industrial”, but these tracks are so weary and lacking even the slightest sense of confrontational aggression… perhaps “dark occult music for completely unreligious ceremonies” is more appropriate, but most record shops don’t have a section for that. “Milton’s Stilton” might be my favorite cut here, as it seems to be a chopped n’ screwed foghorn dueling with a faulty HVAC system, but the b-side-encompassing “The Bird Ceased To Be Articulate” is wonderful too, some sort of stylistic convergence of the loneliest Dead C-related solo projects and the mysterious new-age noise of Civilistjävel!. No matter how you slice it, Private Failings is a prime slab from the Aussie post-noise underground.
