Album Notes & Community Reviews

Arising from the ashes of the Edinburgh punk outfit The Freeze, Gordon Sharp's new project delved deeply into harrowing, fragmented noise structures. The album contrasts moments of fragile, gothic beauty with bursts of violent, industrial-tinged cacophony, driven by Sharp's intensely theatrical vocal delivery. It is a profoundly unsettling listen that bridges the gap between early post-punk and severe avant-garde industrial.
