Rating: Alien Sex Fiend: horror and kitsch settings but also abrasive violence.
A London group raised in the dark/gothic mists, with lethal injections of Alice Cooper and punk rock. Some affinity with the Lords Of The New Church but, on closer inspection, also with the Virgin Prunes.
One might say: better has emerged from this scene. So what? Can we not, perhaps, enjoy the mephistophelian compositions of the black minstrels in question?
Bass, keyboards, synthesizers, guitars, and a harsh voice. A voice that usually does not appeal to those who praise the baritone Ian Curtis or the plaintive Robert Smith.
A group of skilled craftsmen, capable of captivating you and leading you into the bowels of a period (that of darkwave) that will never return.
"Acid Bath" was released in 1984 but sounds contemporary today. Please don't come to me talking about Nine Inch Nails' industrial-rock or the gothic branded Cinema Strange. All this is not relevant and is not a reason or measure of comparison.
"In God We Trust (In Cars You Rust?)", "She's a Killer", "Boneshaker Baby" (what hits!) and the wonderful "Breakdown And Cry".
These are some of the most exciting tracks, assuming you aren't frigid, present on the record.
Take it and listen to it, all of you. This is horror rock offered up for... those who truly know how to love it.

07 E.S.T. (Trip to the Moon) (08:10)
e.s.t. (trip to the moon)
water... no...
(dee dee dee dee)
(da da da da)
have you ever had gas before?
four three two one
the time is now 4.57
and 20 seconds past the hour...
sucking on a long cigarette
he looks into the machinery...
there must be more to life than this
more to life...
i think i need some est or
a trip to the moon
i think i need some est, trip to the moon
trip to the moon
the time is now 4.58 and 2 seconds...
his eyes are all grey and blown inside...
he looks into the machinery
puffing on that cold cigarette
feel his life slipping through my hands...
there must be more to life than this
i think i need some est, trip to the moon
i think i need some est, trip to the moon
trip to the moon
have you ever had gas before?
four three two one
sucking on that cold cigarette
i looked into the machinery
my eyes are all grey inside
like some blown fuses
take my hand
take my life
take my home
and take my wife
i think i need some est or
a trip to the moon
i think i need some est or
a trip to the moon
trip to the moon
trip to the moon
trip to the moon
have you ever had gas (ugh) before?
(aaagh) i think i need some
est, trip to the moon
i think i need some est, trip to the moon
feel my life running away
feel my life slipping through - your hands
aagh! i think i need some
est (ha ha) or a trip to
the moon
yeah! i think i need some est
or - a trip to the moon
have you ever had gas before? (ha ha ha)
four three two one
trip to the moon
trip to the moon
trip to the moon
i think i need some est, trip to the moon
sucking on that long cigarette
you look into the machinery

or a trip to the moon
you can't make rubbers from my brain
i think i,. i think i need some
est, trip to the moon
