'Themes from William Blake's The Marriage of Heaven and Hell' represents the ensemble's transformative leap into avant-garde and post-industrial experimentation. The double album sets the entirety of Blake's poetic text to a dense and ambitious backdrop of electronic pulses, trip-hop beats, and remnants of heavy metal. It is a highly unconventional and literary work that shattered all generic expectations and redefined the band's creative boundaries.
