Album Notes & Community Reviews

Formed by former members of legendary French progressive act Magma, this instrumental quartet delivers a blistering, highly technical fusion of Zeuhl and heavy jazz-rock. The complex interplay between distorted bass, intricate drumming, and Fender Rhodes piano creates a relentlessly driving, dark atmosphere. It stands as a vital modern continuation of the esoteric Zeuhl movement.
