Search - Skinny Puppy :: Too Dark Park

This is a masterful work of noise sculpture; ominously appealing, it draws the listener into a musical world of colorful horror. Musician/programmers Cevin Key and Dwayne Goettel craft fascinating sound collages over which vocalist Nivek Ogre roars, snarls, and whispers his inimitable free-flowing narcotic imagery. Lyrical themes revolve around pollution and destruction of both the earth and the psyche. Key and Goettel display their characteristic talent for creating beautifully wicked and twisted soundscapes, seemingly drawing from any conceivable device capable of creating noise. "Convulsion" and "Tormentor" are of particular note for their intricate and imaginative design. --Mark McCleerey
