Preorder now and receive an instant grat of the track Whispering In Shadow is the second album from Fader, a duo consisting of Neil Arthur BlancmangeNear Future and Benge, whose work includes his own solo albums, coproduction with Gazelle Twin, plus being a member of three other critically acclaimed bands Wrangler, Creep Show and John Foxx And The Maths.Opening with the pulsing darkness of Always Suited Blue, the tone of the new album is more haunted than their first cascades of analogue synths falling over rich, sonorous vocals and lyrics that switch between midnight introspection and something more sinister.
This slow creep towards something undefined but menacing is partly due to Arthurs vocals, pitched so low they sound like theyre coming through the boards on the likes of What Did It Say and Reporting.
However theres also a vulnerability in his voice trying to make some kind of sense out of all the random thoughts and disturbing emotions.
Enemy Fighter is eerily beautiful, as is the title track which is almost zenlike in its minimalist gloom.
These unsung heroes of underground minimal electronic music seem to be revelling in Faders outsider status as they offer a deeply personal album of subtle heartbreak and slowburning pop songs.
