On their 10th record, the Glasgow-based group serves up more wonderfully menacing, gothy synthpop, perfect for dungeon dancing. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 19, 2023
Xeno & Oaklander return with an album full of their trademark minimalist synth grooves and slow-winding vocal melodies. Dark and mysterious. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 11, 2016

Though I think the followup, 'Pathways Crossed,' is a bit stronger because of the stronger melodies and better handled vocals (to my ear, anyway), this is still a very strong minimal synth ep: this is full of wonderfully full but not overbearing synths and propulsive beats, not to mention some good hooks, especially in the ultra-melodic closer. criticaljams
