Album Notes & Community Reviews

Vini Reilly continues his atmospheric guitar explorations, heavily incorporating synthesized textures and drum machines into his post-rock framework. The record captures a deeply melancholic, nocturnal mood that bridges the gap between Factory Records' post-punk aesthetics and ambient classical music.
