**EXCLUSIVE VINYL VERSION!! Alex Cuervo has been rattling skulls for years in punk & garage bands like The Hex Dispensers, Blacktop, This Damn Town & Feast of Snakes.

2011 saw the release of two solo EPs under his own name, exploring his interest in darker, synth-oriented punk music.

Since then, the Texan native has not only honed his skills on the synthesizer, but constructed this 13-song suite of instrumentals that owe a serious debt to the pioneers of lateseventies horror soundtracks like John Carpenter, Italo-prog masters Goblin & the work of German pioneers Tangerine Dream.

"Espectrostatic" unfolds like the soundtrack to a lost horror classic, with it 's pulsing synths & ominous passages inferring the unleashing of an ancient, horror creating a Lovecraft-ian musical journey.

The tracks range from near ambient clouds of dread ("Consulting The Necronauts") to throbbing tunes that could almost be mistaken for the goth-club floor-fillers created by Skinny Puppy & Soft Cell ("Phantom Swarm").

This is music made for the night & all things that reside therein. The LP edition of "Espectrostatic" is pressed on 150gm black vinyl & includes a download code.

Features Sleeve design from reknowned designer/illustrator Jason Willis.
