Beauty & the Beast

The second album from the European avant-garde supergroup was famously recorded in real-time with virtually no pre-composition or overdubs. Chris Cutler's intricate drumming and Heiner Goebbels' chaotic sampling provide a tense, unpredictable backdrop for Christoph Anders' desperate vocal improvisations. It is a striking, politically charged masterclass in spontaneous musical deconstruction.
