Ash Code is an Italian Dark Wave band that masterfully blends influences, ranging from early Depeche Mode, The Sisters of Mercy to post-punk, Synthpop, coldwave, & EBM. On the critically-acclaimed album Perspektive, Ash Code combines its influences & innovation to create driving, atmospheric Dark Wave devoted to the drum machine, powerful synthesizers & driving bass lines.
"For a band so heavy on atmospherics (and whose name hints at being
smudged and indistinct), Ash Code come across as clear as day on their
third LP, Perspektive. Partially that'™s a function of their often blunt
and repeated lyrical declarations (Give
me my life backÂÂÂ, There'™s no mercy anymoreÂÂÂ). But it's also due to a
canny sense for arrangement and production which delivers driving,
full-impact post-punk instrumentation just as well as it does coldwave
drama. The end result is as good a marker as any of how different
sub-genres of dark music are intersecting in 2018." - Bruce Lord I Die: You Die
