The Joy Division comparisons are unavoidable…but their debut warranted endless plays and, having also been gripped by their live performance (with the frontman as much in the audience as on the stage) multiple times, we know that their Cold Wave, Kosmische post-punk propulsion is distinctive, idiosyncratic and fully re-tooled for our times.

“Blends pulsating motorik beats, nagging basslines and droning electronics into all-consuming atmospheres. Fronted by foreboding vocals that sit somewhere between Ian Curtis’ melancholic baritone and something more experimental” - Electronic Sound
