Released

The final album in the original run continues the sitting soft that began with Future Days, a sound as much a part of the band’s process as hard-knock tunes like “Mushroom.” “Safe” is a lovely, dubby thing, and “Sodom” is a slow march of dread, a definite touchstone for Public Image Ltd later that same year. “Aspectacle” is another Rosko bubbler, a disco-ish jam that holds its own and gives Schmidt room enough to make a small, Moroder-ish melody and sheets of spaced out sound.
