Already released a few months ago, this latest release of Attrition is a real interesting concept. First there’s the concept or central theme of the album dealing about ‘the Story Of Mary Ann Cotton’ and next there’s the dark ambient style featuring some famous guest musicians. Mary Ann Cotton was probably the greatest female mass murderer in time from England. She seemed to have poisoned 20 of her own children and partners with arsenic until she was arrested and finally hanged in 1873. Next comes the transposition into music from this story. Attrition did it in their now familiar, but still particular ambient way. It’s a style Martin Bowes has already explored a few times now. On “All Mine Enemys Whispers” he composed nothing less than a soundtrack for an imaginary movie. Some very famous guest musicians like Emilie Autumn, Ned Kirby (Stromkern), Laurie Reade (Pigface) ao contributed to this remarkable concept. The music is quite dark and I can’t even remember Attrition having been that dark in sound. Some spooky vocals on the debut-cut “What Shall I Sing” bring back to life a very old song children where singing at Halloween. This Victorian children’s rhyme was sung by Naomi and Jordan Bowes (son of Martin) and brings a spooky, childish debut to this release. Some neo-classical touch played by cello on “The Burial club” are much darker, like leading the listener in the lost time of Mary Ann Cotton. The disturbing sounds of “The Reinsch Test” perfectly reinforce the illusion of terror and horror during the last moments of agony of Mary Ann’s victims. The song “The Trial” sounds definitely different, like expressing deep sadness and melancholia perfectly awaken by the cello parts. The 2 songs left aren’t the most fascinating ones, but come to achieve the last part of the story. I really like the concept and the way it was put into music. Musical wise I already heard better things from Attrition, but this release is for sure a particular one on their impressive discography!
