PROG REVIEWER
This one is something of a sequel to White Light From the Mouth of Infinity, and its packaging and reissue history is a
big clue to that; the two albums went out of print for a long while until they got reissued on a compilation with each
other and a bunch of bonus tracks from the same era recently, and the cover art shows the bunny from the cover of
White Light coming to a bad end.Musically, the group continue their bid to combine commercially viable gothic rock with their particular brand of post- punk miserablism, but they get a little more experimental with it, with results which are a bit mixed but end up being interesting to listen to (even if the bid for commercial viability seems to have collapsed). Even when they start threatening to get into, say, something resembling the more conventional Melvins songs or perhaps something the Pixies might have picked up on, they end up falling back into their old weirder ways, with some tracks resurrecting the stark industrial noisy doom sound of their early releases at disconcerting moments. Worth a dabble, but kind of falls between two stools.
