Album Notes & Community Reviews

Modern Eon's only studio album captured the Liverpool group at the atmospheric edge of post-punk. 'Fiction Tales' combines shadowed guitar textures, spacious saxophone, and restrained rhythms, later gaining a reputation among listeners of gothic and dream-pop-adjacent post-punk.
