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 ("œGive
me my life back, There'™s no mercy anymore"). 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
