review...
The long-awaited return of Alto Stratus started as an attempt to do a sequel
to the Biomechanoid album, in parallel to our work in Endgame and the Newt
Hounds project, yet although Gigeresque the "Necronomicon Suite"
was much more patently Alto Stratus. Also, a new Alto Stratus style had
developed, stepping back to the mid-1980s sound and reinventing it, thus the
title "Catharsis".
Important
note: the 2xCD-R issue is a superior enhanced quality edition with expanded
frequency range and greater dynamics. The flac uploaded to Bandcamp was the
original DAT master (as per the cassette) with no remastering.
