Product Description

Densely layered, complex and atmospheric, Subconscious Landscapes sees Velvet Acid Christ pushing the boundaries further than ever. The act's 16th studio album, the new record calls on influences in the ranges of Juno Reactor, Massive Attack, and Delerium. This album can be considered a natural progression from the hypnotic grooves of past VAC songs such as "S**t". "Dilauded", & "Ghost In The Circuit". Subconscious Landscapes seems to flow between two halves of an album, with the first four songs being highlighted by guest vocals from Sabine Theroni of Psykkle on "Barbed Wire Garden" and "Taste the Sin", as well as Malgorzata Wacht on vocals for "Grey". The second half, entitled "Mauvais" on side B of the vinyl version, takes a decidedly darker turn of sound. The new album also marks the first vinyl release for Velvet Acid Christ.

That is a good thing, too, because you have multiple albums with listening potential instead of one sound on a bunch of discs spread out through the years.On this album, it is almost a tale of two halves, with the first few songs featurin
