By 1986, as we’ve seen, styles are all over the place. I don’t know if this is the 10 years later response to The Sex Pistols’ success but it sure feels like “Anyone can and should do it” is in full effect.
Breaking Circus put out one record. This one. It’s darkly post-punk and moody and edgy and goth and alternative and pounding and, well, the kind of thing I can be a sucker for when it’s done well. It defies actual simile description and that’s a great thing.
