cEvin Key and Dwayne Goettel's first outing as Download (and Dwayne's last before his death), originally released on Off Beat in 1995, showed a progression into industrial/electronic territory far more experimental than even Skinny Puppy's stranger moments. With the help of Phil Western and Mark Spybey, 'Furnace' plays out like a soundtrack to a post-apocalyptic wasteland. The music ranges from frenetic industrial beats to textural Genesis P. Orridge's vocals on 'Omniman,' 'Lebanull,' and 'Marred' that add a frightening quality, sounding both malevolent and mechanical, giving it the sense of a soundtrack to an unmade movie. It's an album full of dissonance and beauty and Metropolis Records is proud to reissue it now with the bonus 'Re:Dux' tracks (2007) as a second disc. Packaging: In Smartpak (cardboard-folder with no plasic trays).
