Norwegian Robert Steen-Antonsen now presents his second album “Arsenic Dreams†and reconfirms that crisp gothic rock in the tradition of bands like The Sisters of Mercy, The Mission, Funhouse or Rosetta Stone can still be infectious. Continuing the style Liquid Grey established on the debut album, more guitars and a pulsing rhythm define the sound are wonderfully complemented by Robert’s deep voice and by subtly used keyboards. With “Arsenic Dreams†Liquid Grey strike a blow for straightforward guitar gothic rock, and the second album can be described again as “goth rock for highways†in the best sense of the word.
Sound engineered by gothic rock expert Tom O’Connell (Traumtaenzer, House Of Usher, ex-Garden Of Delight), giving the compositions a huge density and a big sound.
