    It's a minimalist approach that started on the Soft Moon's outstanding 2010 self-titled debut full-length, and continues here with each composition taking on an overall instrumental feel despite the occasional presence of lyrical accompaniment.

    Very similar to the self-titled debut album, but that's ok because I liked that record too. In a nutshell, this is sort of industrial meets goth, with very little or no vocals. What words there are tend to be mixed right down, and that suits the music perfectly. There are interesting sounds throughout, from chorus heavy bass to howling, distant synths. Everything's been run the effects processor again and again, however that's not a criticism. If there'd been something to distinguish it a bit more from the first record, then the score could have been higher. Having said that though, this is very listen-able to-able, and I'll certainly be in line for the next offering.… Full Review »
