VOIDWORK - 'Horror/Forsaken' CD (Black Drone)
A beautiful release by VoidWork featuring vocals from Ann-Mari Thim (Arcana, Seventh Harmonic). "Horror/Forsaken" is a double-headed album based loosely on the concepts of fear, abandonment and mankind's meaningless place in an impersonal Universe. "Horror", the first half of the release, is relatively song oriented and was inspired musically by 90s darkwave, as well as traditional melodies of both Eastern and Western culture. "Forsaken" mainly carries traditional dark ambient influences and focuses on atmosphere rather than on conventional song structure or sound. Both dark halves come together to make a black whole that is organic in its origin and purpose. From waking to sleep, birth to death. Ltd x 300 copies in a digipak. Australian import.
