Album Notes & Community Reviews

J.G. Thirlwell unleashes a manic, aggressively chaotic explosion of industrial rock heavily laced with dark cabaret and psychobilly aesthetics. 'Hole' utilizes dense, mechanical rhythms, massive brass sections, and profoundly misanthropic, satirical lyricism to construct a terrifyingly theatrical avant-garde soundscape. It is a wildly energetic, brilliantly humorous, and fiercely original masterpiece of 80s noise music.
