Cosmic Disco/Darkwave/Krautrock
HYPNOTIZING!!
"There's something so appealingly primal and intuitive about this band. For much of the album, they stick to their signature, pretty much failsafe formula of killer low-slung bass-lines, frazzled drumming and jagged synth vamps, owing a large debt to post-punk influences such as Liquid Liquid (whose Dennis Young plays percussion here). It's an austere, often claustrophobic sound, but one that's also celebratory through its sheer propulsive force. At points, it's like a stoner-rock band gone disco, with huge bass riffs wrapped in murky, spooky atmospherics. De-tuned drums wobble around while tendrils of guitar stab in to the tracks; all good, macabre fun." - Simon Hampson on Factmagazine.co.uk
