Album Notes & Community Reviews

Deploying an arsenal of unpredictable vintage analog synthesizers, the British trio eschews modern digital polish for chaotic, punk-infused electronic noise. The grinding, mechanical rhythms and severely distorted bass frequencies predict the aggressive, retro-futuristic electroclash movement that would emerge in the following decade.
