It sounds like a band who'd been listening to too much Marilyn Manson and not enough Darkthrone, and meant every second of it. Divisive then, fascinating now, and absolutely the kind of record that belongs in an alternative and dark aesthetic vinyl collection worth talking about.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVinyl full-length album.
