Dark Entries
Legendary French industrial pioneers Vox Populi! arrive on Dark Entries with a reissue of “Sucre De Pastèque“.
Like most of Vox Populi!’s output, “Sucre” is a scattershot endeavor, encompassing psychedelic dirges, cosmic drones, hypnotic chants, and fractured machine-funk. The mood is understatedly bleak, but Vox Populi!’s genre agnosticism and curious sense of wonder prevent things from feeling oppressive or heavy-handed. The cover for “Sucre De Pastèque” was designed by Eloise Shir-Juen Leigh, and features a collage by Vox Populi! member Fr6 Man. This is deeply fried material, perfectly capturing the obscurantism that characterized much of the 80s DIY cassette scene.
