Attrition's records have aged better than most of their goth/industrial dance contemporaries. Martin Bowes' intricate sense of sound design and rhythm programming, and partner Ashley Niblock's merging of spoken word and mock operatics, have engendered a less genre-defined feel in the band.
1991's A TRICKY BUSINESS is a later addition to the Attrition catalog. Here, Bowes is more interested in dirty autobahns than dirty, mascara-smudged faces. Tracks such as the docudrama "Thin Red Line" and "Scenario" combine Kraftwerk-like pulses and late '80s Eurobeat (think A Split Second, Trisomie 21), with Bowes' yarns that conjure decadent film noir and rainswept exteriors. The duo's sinister edge and crafty exploitation of layered bass sequencers makes A TRICKY BUSINESS one of their finer efforts.
