Album Notes & Community Reviews

Fusing stark, analog synthesizers composed by David Harrow with her own biting spoken-word poetry, Clark delivered a defining masterwork of the European coldwave scene. The chilling track 'Sleeper in Metropolis' exemplifies the record's profound sense of urban alienation and political disillusionment. The album established her as an utterly unique, highly influential voice in 80s underground electronic music.
