Album Notes & Community Reviews
Marking an evolution in complex programming and multi-layered sampling, this release firmly solidifies the Canadian group's pioneering status within the electro-industrial sphere. The dense, nightmarish soundscapes are constructed from relentless drum machine sequences and unsettling film dialogue loops, heavily exploring themes of political corruption and animal rights.
