Album Notes & Community Reviews

The Legendary Pink Dots frontman ventures into a surreal, deeply melancholic solo outing populated by archaic drum machines and wistful synthesizers. His distinctive, theatrical vocal delivery guides the listener through a warped, psychedelic landscape heavily laced with dark cabaret eccentricities.
