Album Notes & Community Reviews

Stepping further away from the gothic grandiosity of their Bauhaus origins, the trio embraced acoustic textures and 1960s folk-rock structures. 'Earth • Sun • Moon' maintains an understated, slightly surreal atmosphere, blending strummed guitars with prominent melodic basslines and neo-psychedelic pop sensibilities.
