dark electro electronic industrial

With an irresistible duality of emotional electro-goth and harsh industrial aggression and lightness breaking into the utter darkness, Lost in Place breaks down genre barriers on Failsafe Corroded. Classical, technical, and melodic with keyboard washes, bells, loops, guitar, heavy drums, and R.M. Ramlow's stunning vocals-everything treated and untreated-spills out of the speakers drawing the listener into this very personal world. Wonderful production. Rhythmically diverse-strong without being overpowering-with keys as much the propulsion as the drumkit.

Lost in Place's first release is powerful and compelling.
