Continuing their transition from abrasive industrial pioneers to underground dancefloor mainstays, the Sheffield duo fully embraces EBM rhythms and prominent vocal sampling on this record. Tracks like 'Sensoria' and 'James Brown' fuse mechanical drum machine patterns with funk-indebted basslines, creating a sleek yet menacing sonic landscape. The album proved highly influential to the emerging Chicago house and Detroit techno scenes.
