Reviews

Parker's visual synthesis with the music, much aided by Scarfe's rip-roaring visions of doom and destruction which turn light into darkness at the flick of a pen rather than a switch, is almost perfect.

Derek Malcolm, Guardian

A stunning portrayal of a slide from isolation into madness. And the music rocks, too--bonus.
