Album Notes & Community Reviews
Recorded entirely in Greece during a tumultuous European tour, the final album from the band's original run is a fascinatingly atmospheric post-punk document. Bruce Licher鈥檚 signature alternate guitar tunings are blended with driving, krautrock-inspired rhythms and subtle Mediterranean influences. The chaotic circumstances of its recording imbue the eclectic instrumentals with a tense, aggressive urgency.
