The promo blurb on the inside sleeve says they’re a Dutch-French duo influenced by “80s Californian hardcore punk, ‘77 punk, and even early Goth rock.” In this case, these influences manifest themselves into middling dark rock with horror themes. The songs, while well executed, cover the same bases others have ad nauseum before, and aren’t really all that interesting to begin with. I imagine those who get all dewy-eyed over stuff that fits nicely into their preferred genre pigeonhole will find this to be the bee’s knees, but there’s too little originality going on here to make it even remotely memorable.
