ATTRITION

"THE JEOPARDY MAZE"

Projekt

Founded by Martin Bowes in the early 1980's, Attrition was considered an important part of the Industrial / Experimental music scene (alongside such bands as SPK, Clock DVA, Coil and others). This new release has a style approaching the Gothic trends. It also shows a Trance character, yet one being mostly linked to the rhythmic aspect of these trends. There also are compositions which can be labelled within the realms of Synth-Pop and Techno. Certain Ambient and Classical traits can be perceived as well. The melodies are cold, mysterious. The voices (especially that of Martin Bowes) that appear in quite of the passages are treated with sound effects, turning them ethereal, almost ghostly. The last piece, a homage to Wendy Carlos, is an electronic version of the hymn "God save the Queen".
