PAS Musique / Press

“...this is a quartet of experimenters making rather quirky and quite dark electronic music with heavily treated vocals set to clonking rhythms, resembling in places a rather more sinister version of The Residents."”

"More exotic world-music flavors occasionally join the party: the album itself opens on a cyber-tribal note with Outside The Void by NY group Post Abortion Stress (PAS), a throbbing echo chamber of exotic percussion and electronic drones"

"An Anglo-American collaboration between Brooklyn's Post Abortion Stress and London based quartet Vultures builds a theatrical ritual, combining a grinding Industrial sound collage of electronics and percussion with an unsettling film projection of a naked, supine woman undergoing a full-body plastercast. With the doors of the main venue pulled shut against the afternoon sun, they succeed in involking an episode of gloomy, creeping menace."

"Few bands can capture emotion but PAS has been doing this for quite some time and knows how to deliver."

"PAS has developed an album with so many eclectic elements and such sensorial experiences which keeps your subconscious altered into an strange meditative state, where mind, body and spirit, became one abstract form to be evoked by each one of the 12 compositions ..."

"There are no clearly defined melodies, no structural landmarks that give you any sense of traditional anchor. This is not music making with any sense of or desire for commercial viability, but sonic sculptures in the mode of pure art."
