:: Burnst :: Lapsus Linguae ::

Resembling something between a Misfits
tribute band and a Bauhaus fan convention it’s fitting to find Lapsus Linguae
churn out some disturbingly tangled sounds. From hideously malformed BC Rich
guitars and a distorted piano, epic and macabre but astonishingly upbeat and
explosive sounds belch forth. Likening them to anything in particular would be
doomed to inaccuracy and above all, injustice. But one imagines purgatory
sounds something like this – jagged, steep and plagued by unpleasant weather.
But it is a place where you can slip into the storm and enjoy the ride for at
least a few hours.
