Downtempo driving and distant rhythms are interrupted by jarring transitions, like flipping stations on a radio dial. The result is a dreamlike expedition in which fans of shoegaze, post-hardcore, synth, noise rock, and post-punk will find comfort in. <\/p>\n<p>The enigmatic Daniela VK \u2014 also featured on TACTICAL PAGAN&#8217;s latest effort \u2014 notably contributes vocals throughout. The album was mastered by Justin K Broadrick. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cMany of the tracks were written late at night, and into the early hours \u2014 a process which inspired the title \u2014 and over time became a depiction of an alternative reality which was occuring.\u201d \u2013 CARTHAGE <\/p>\n<p>Set for a worldwide release on Friday, March 7th via both Avalanche Recordings and GIVE\/TAKE, the album will be available on limited edition maxi-style CD and digital platforms.
