Album Notes & Community Reviews

Introducing the icy, aristocratic Thin White Duke persona, this epic suite transitions brilliantly from a grinding, train-like synthesizer intro into a soaring, upbeat funk-rock celebration. The complex, multi-part structure and lyrical exploration of European occultism marked a profound stylistic turning point in the artist's legendary career.
