First album by this Zonk't side project, resolutely ambient and more experimental. Black Grains takes the listener on a one-hour long journey through subtle frequencies, very grainy (of course) clicks and blips, a little noise, and very deep drones (reminding of The [law-rah] Collective). Atmospheric in the truest sense of the word, this debut is a success, being a well produced and intelligently executed album which sets Pylône aside as an interesting project.

“This cd really benefits from a large stereo of a hifi environment. The sound goes deeper, becomes more bombastic and the cripples, crackles and scratches are going right through your brain. Great.” - Gothtronic

“Pylône delivers neoteric, but not unfamiliar, abstract environments and minimal dark ambient over five tracks on "Black Grains." Varying in length from 5 to 25 minutes, each creaking and trembling work of transcendent noise blends nicely with its counterparts.” : 8/10 - Connexionbizarre.net
