Eternal combustion

Thieves created by Duncan Speakman.
"In the Malebolge of the Inferno, thieves are tormented by reptiles. The bites of the reptiles sometimes cause the thieves to spontaneously combust, only to be regenerated again for further torment. In the spirit of the accused, recordings of reptiles and fires were 'stolen' from various sources then used in convolution processes to manipulate continuously unresolving musical passages.
"Some of the instrumentation was created using Tom Mud's gutter synthesis to evoke the guttural hisses of large lizards. "
