The Cleansing Undertones of Wake/Lift is a companion EP to the full-length album Wake/Lift by post-metal band Rosetta. It was released in 2007 on Translation Loss Records.
Background The Cleansing Undertones of Wake/Lift is made from various noise samples compiled by Rosetta vocalist Michael Armine between the years 2000 and 2007. While it contains samples used in Wake/Lift, the two albums are not meant to be synchronized. Armine "purposely designed The Cleansing Undertones of Wake/Lift to make Wake/Lift sound terrible if played together."
In 2012, Translation Loss released a double CD featuring all four tracks from Cleansing Undertones along with Verse, another ambient album by Armine.
