Album Notes & Community Reviews

'As Above So Below' continues the former Bad Seeds bassist's penchant for crafting cinematic, imaginary soundtracks that blend disparate urban genres. The project seamlessly weaves together espionage-tinged grooves, dark alternative rock elements, and atmospheric trip-hop beats to create a moody, narrative-driven auditory thriller.
