Yet again, Bad Sector doesn’t let us down (in fact, I am
finding that Italy has been providing us with more and
more intriguing artists). Everything you have grown to
love about Bad Sector is demonstrated on this album.
Xela is a re-mastered recording of the backing tape used
in the Sonderangebot performance in Berlin, 1996; a half
hour track exhibiting the classic Bad Sector grindy
drones, raw textures, intense mechanical accents, and
distinct arpeggios. The CD and inserts are cased in a
heavy metal box decorated with a spattering of paint and
the like. Not only can you have another beautiful album
by Bad Sector, you can own an eye-catching piece of
work among the plastic jewel cases on your rack! Look
for other Bad Sector discs, such as The Harrow,
Polonoid, and Dolmen Factory. It seems as though most
of what he has released is done in ridiculously small
print runs.
