The Sodality - Beyond Unknown Pleasures



CD
Label : Verba Corrige, Italy, 1994


I'm not very much into power electronics, though Con-Dom is a longtime favourite of mine. For me, "Beyond Unknown Pleasures" by Italian act The Sodality is one of the best releases in that genre, and one of my favourite records ever. That's an incredibly powerful masterpiece, when most power electronics records just use the same cheap noises, screams and provocative ideas...
That CD version includes the re-release of "Beyond Unknown Pleasures" LP (1987) and "Orgies Of Crime" 12" (1988), first released by Aquilifer Sodality.


Tracklist :

1. They Never Learn (6:22)
2. I Can't Stand A Bitchy Chick (5:10)
3. Catch The Whore (3:57)
4. I Want Your Blood (4:35)
5. The Kiddie Eater (5:17)
6. Fuck Mastery (1:55)
7. The Younger The Better (4:10)
8. Beyond Unknown Pleasures (6:06)
9. Orgies Of Crime (7:51)
10. And So You Shall (4:17)
