"Afterimage's
brand of 'dark dance music' had more in common with is European
peers than the current trend of L.A. bands. Their sound was described
by one reviewer as 'lushly stark' and, given their unique blend
of sax, keyboards, drums and guitars, it is easy to understand why
they were much misunderstood and ignored by the local scene. Offered
here are two examples of their sound: 'Afterimage' comes from their
EP, Fade In in an alternate version while 'Idol' is taken
from a live performance. "
from the original liner notes
Daniel
Voznick (aka Alec Tension) also appears with the Tunneltones
playing bass on "The Last Line for Love." Afterimage guitarist
A Produce
began his "hypno-trance" recordings with his solo selection
here. Bass player Rich Evac provides a track that
bridges the gap between Afterimage and his stint with Psi-Com
and Perry Farrell.
