Already Apeles leads us to a completely different record with CRUDEan album recorded in a single afternoon at the legendary White Noise studio in Los Angeles, where classic analog equipment shaped a spontaneous and visceral sound that symbolically closes an artistic trilogy started with River of timefollowed by Crux and These.
