The Art Of Falling Apart

Soft Cell

Marc Almond and Dave Ball translated personal fatigue into an unhinged, sprawling odyssey. The title track stretches for ten minutes, representing the pair at their most experimental.

Synthesizers pulse with a cold, nocturnal intensity. By stripping away commercial gloss, the duo reveals the messy, difficult truth of life in the public eye.
