When Amon Tobin unleashed Only Child Tyrant in 2019, Electronic Sound were impressed: “It’s brilliantly bonkers… “ they said. “The wonderfully wonky riff of ‘Monkey Box’ opens proceedings… ‘Eight Bit Psyche’ sounds like Augustus Pablo and The Tornados jamming in some faraway corner of the stratosphere.”
Now, in 2024, a new Only Child Tyrant video has dropped, and it’s a rubber burning two minutes of auto destruction on one of Tobin’s queasy off-Earth worlds where a perverse and frightening unnatural environment mutates with machinery to create some kind of ‘Death Race 2000‘ horror show. It’s ace.
