Album Notes

A very intriguing twist between the vocalist of INXS, and Depeche Mode, coupled with Depeche Mode style lyrics, and synth work, but with a great deal more percussion. This might as well be pop music in places, if this CD ever get radio play, I'm sure the europop/synthpop fans will fawn all over this band. However, buried deeper in the background, is an industrial dance/goth element, masquerading behind the veil. All the elements are present through all the bands three incarnations, but they choose instead to not attempt to grow any in that arena, and focus directly on accessible music. This is be no means a band thing, they are obviously very good at what they do, and probably very content. It's just odd to hear the indie dance percussion buried so deep in the background.
