Album Notes & Community Reviews

Driving a hard wedge between gothic rock and aggressive electronic body music, this effort showcases the band's signature mechanical intensity. The dark, rhythmic programming is perfectly counterbalanced by Rodney Orpheus's raw and commanding vocal presence. It became a staple of the European darkwave club circuit, lauded for its noisy yet distinctly melodic sensibilities.
