notes
The album opener: a driving, distorted synth bass sets the darker, industrial-tinged tone of the record. Gear approximated from the Screen Violence sessions, recorded in the band's own Glasgow studio during lockdown: Moog Sub 37 and Voyager, Access Virus TI and a Juno-60 pushed harder and dirtier than earlier records, in keeping with the album's industrial, horror-film-referencing tone.
