Leaether Strip – After the devastation 2CD

Description

The triumphant comeback of Claus Larsen’s LEAETHER STRIP, “After The Devastation” (2006) marked the return of one of dark electro’s founding fathers after a five-year silence. Signing to Alfa Matrix — who had just issued the returning “Suicide Bombers” EP — Larsen poured years of pent-up creativity into a sprawling double album that reaffirmed his status as a genre pioneer.

Across two discs, “After The Devastation” balances the pounding, uncompromising EBM that made LEAETHER STRIP a legend with newer, slightly poppier and more melodic shades. Emotional, furious and relentlessly danceable, it stands among the most celebrated returns in the scene — a definitive statement from the man who helped define electronic body music.
