Album Notes & Community Reviews
Intentionally designed to test the absolute limits of sonic endurance, this release is a cornerstone of the confrontational power electronics microgenre. 'Great White Death' assaults the listener with piercing, high-frequency synthesizer feedback and William Bennett's violently distorted, shouted vocals, which relentlessly explore themes of sadism and degradation. It remains one of the most notoriously extreme and uncompromising albums to emerge from the British industrial underground.
