Greater Than One – Duty And Trust [Cass] (1991, ROIR)

Appropriately enough, the London industrial band Greater Than One was made up of two vocalists / keyboardists / programmers, Lee Newman and Michael Wells. Not as heavy as many industrial groups, and with perhaps more of a sense of humor, the duo debuted in the mid-'80s with a series of limited-edition and/or cassette-only releases, including 1987's 'All the Masters Licked Me'; their first widely distributed album was 1988's 'Dance of the Cowards'. This was in turn reissued by Wax Trax! in the U.S. in 1989 as 'London', a two-disc set featuring six extra tracks. 'G-Force' (1989) and the 'Index' EP (1991) followed before Greater Than One and Wax Trax! parted ways; the duo returned in 1992 with the cassette only release 'Duty and Trust' for ROIR, a fantastic album because it culls together some of the weirdest and most obscure tracks that Greater Than One ever produced. Very dark, moody, Gothic and industrial sounding stuff. Not at all beat oriented like most of their other material is. Perfect for late night listening. [SOURCE: ALLMUSIC]
