Semi0n - Nuclear Attack £7 Tracklisting: |
"Now, I am become death, the
destroyer of worlds"
Robert Oppenheimer, Trinity 1945
The Atomic age was meant to be the first steps of mankind into the future.
Instead the threat of nuclear annihilation hung over the head of everyone
living in the post World War II years.
The Cold War blazed with icy fury as the nuclear stockpiles of East and West
grew ever larger and more destructive.
The policy of MAD (Mutual Assured Destruction) seemed like the inevitable
outcome in an age of paranoia and fear.
With Nuclear Attack, Semi0n have tried to sonically recreate the feeling of
dread, horror and devastation that a Nuclear strike would have on a country.
Musically brutal in places the track is divided into 7 movements each
covering different phases of a Nuclear Strike and its aftermath.
However the band believes Nuclear Attack is best listened to it it's full 43
minute form as presented on the CD.
