Album Notes & Community Reviews

The Coventry dark electronic pioneers further refined their gloomy, industrial-tinged sound on their second full-length release. Relying on stark drum machine patterns, dissonant synthesizer lines, and brooding vocal performances, the project became a foundational pillar of the emerging European darkwave underground.
