Hercules & Love Affair [https://www.herculesandloveaffair.net/]is one of the most ecclectic acts ever. They are loosley veiled and pretend to be an electronica dance group, but, that's only if you heard their hits. Sure they do that kind of thing, but they have managed to avoid any sort of responsibility to any genre.
I got to talk to Andy Butler at from his home in Ghent Belgium, and we covered the new album, being nothing like any of his other work, mutual friends, and experiences that created such a dark folk spiritual opus of semi-techno. He had Budgie on drums for this album (Siouxsie and the Banshees, Creatures) and ANOHNI on vocals. Sometimes I felt like I was in church, like a 4th century newly established Christian church, or I was at the edges of hell or just oblivion, or wherever the music wanted to take me.
Andy is openly gay, and has weapons grade ginger hair, at least on top still. I let this conversation go really deep, because the album took us there.
