Please Note Not All Our New Items Are Shrink Wrapped.All items shipped within 3 working days of payment.Take the themes of: fear of war, paranoia, euphoria, dark sexuality and a cosmic new age and imagine them in the industrial backdrop of 1970s Sheffield and you have Timo Kaukolampi's vision for what the fourth K-X-P album 'III Part II' sounds and looks like.The Finnish group - the core unit of which has now long comprised of the trio: Timo Kaukolampi (electronics, vocals and the 'K'), Tuomo Puranen (bass, keyboards and the 'P'), and alternating drummers (the 'X' - for the mystery) Tomi Leppanen and Anssi Nykanen - are once again found to be breaking territory in the second part of their album III.rrIf Part I was the brooding, rising and tension-ensconced opening act then Part II is the climatic and explosive finale that wraps up the thirteen tracks that stretches across the two releases.

For Kaukolampi however, he views this latest sonic development as 'the most rock, punk and new wave record we have ever done. It is angry and hostile but it also has beauty in it. Like a conversation between good and evil, capturing the moment when punk rockers started to use drum machines and sequencers.'When pressed on the individual tracks from the album, the sorts of descriptions and reference points eclipse that conventional and prosaic: 'A Dystopian vision of
