Australian industrial/experimental group active from the late 1970s into the 1980s, known for Leichenschrei (1982) and Zamia Lehmanni.

Influential in the early industrial scene; reviewers note mechanistic rhythms, pulsations, and an esoteric, detached atmosphere.

Two DeBaser reviews frame SPK as an Australian industrial/experimental project with mechanistic, pulsating soundscapes. Leichenschrei (1982) is described as a seminal, relentless industrial statement. Zamia Lehmanni is read as detached, esoteric and quietly menacing. Both reviewers give measured praise while noting the music's challenging nature.

For:Fans of industrial and experimental music; listeners seeking dark, mechanistic, avant-garde soundscapes.

 "The detached atmosphere of this work by SPK is \"the calm before the storm\", where it only gives you the time to go buy as many diapers as you can find before the impending Cambodia, especially if you feel you have marked poorly (but even decently) in this series of reincarnations."

 An infinite flow of pulsations, beats, offbeats, sonic metallurgy. There isn't a moment of silence or reflection.
