kontravoid - native state - cititrax - vinyl

New Copy

Genre: Wave / Pop / Rock - Wave

1. Native State (7" version)
2. Cut To Cleanse (7" version)

"The tracks 'Native State' and 'Cut to Cleanse' are exclusive 7" only versions. The record is pressed on clear blue vinyl and comes in a hand silk-screened sleeve, limited edition of 999 numbered copies. The name Kontravoid belongs on a limited run cassette circa 1980-something, the type of tape buried in lost upstate dustbins of pre-MIDI analog electronics, wedged between Cabaret Voltaire and Das Ding. The dark industrial and new wave influences are strong on ex-Crystal Castles drummer Cam Findlay's new project - his voice is scary, like an echoing underwater growl - but the underlying pop melodies always afford a degree of breathing room."
