With help from HEALTH's Jupiter Keyes, Denver producer Travis Egedy refines the blasted-electro approach of 2009's Dark Rift.
The hands-across-the-void cover art that accompanies the proper sophomore effort from blasted-electro producer and Denver scene magnate Travis Egedy's Pictureplane project, , brings to mind a few things: fictional Spinal Tap album , the "kid who found the severed hand" statue in "Arrested Development", and Magic Eye artwork with all the eye-straining already in place. In reality, the image ties into the album's loose themes of human touch and technological eroticism. This dorm-room theorizing also shows up in selected song titles: "Trancegender", "Post Physical", "Body Mod".
