Zoviet France

:zoviet*france: emerged from Newcastle in 1980 as one of the most enigmatic forces in industrial ambient music. The collective, centered around Ben Panton and Mark Warren, crafted haunting soundscapes using found objects, tape loops, and unconventional recording techniques.

*300 copies* The 90's run of :zoviet*france: is, what I consider to be, a divisive time for long time fans of the group.

During this period especially the groups hallmark sound would be twisted and shifted into what amounted to a swill of limp krautrock inspired dark ambient. Their live albums especially, are long and desolate treks…
