Andrew Eldritch and
Doktor Avalanche were all that was left of
TSoM after
the first album. And seeing as how
Doktor Avalanche doesn't have a body,
Floodland is basically an
Eldritch solo album. It sounds like it was conceived to be played in a sunken cathedral, as you float along in a current of shadows, hell-bent on dragging you into a ruminative atmosphere... It's a soundtrack to the opening of your eyes to the bastardry of love and the reason the world is all wrong, until it all crumbles around you. Get the extended version for extra sparkly bonus track goodness, including a twelve minute version of
Neverland.
