"Audio/visual-surrealist KEVIN GAN YUEN, is one-half of San Francisco's celebrated blackened noise trio SUTEKH HEXEN, FERMENTÆ and CIRCLE OF EYES. His work illuminates the underside of nature-inspired dark ambient with passages manipulating foreboding, discordant overtones. Culturally, the glossolalic denotes an act synonymous with the phenomenon of purportedly speaking in tongues, which, in turn, constructs a new mode of articulating thoughts by uttering words rooted in an unknown language; in this case the delivery through the electrical guitar, being his primary instrument of communication.
Disclosing sonic, yet speech-like syllables exercised in a ritualistic context, Kevin Gan Yuen inculcates an idea of language that reintroduces the threat and allure of the magical through sonic-practice." -C. Shafii
