The logical sequel of the “Thresholds”
single, “Fractured” sees Detritus
keep the harder guitars and beats, while staying true to this
intricate drum'n'bass patterns and evocative strings. A production
tour-de-force, it presents a crystal-clear, yet powerful and
deep sound that confirms this essential acts to the confirmed
heights he had reached with his previous albums. Deep, masterful
and highly rewarding.

Four years “Endogenous”
and two after “Origin”,
David Dando-Moore (Detritus)
presents with “Fractured” a third studio album in
which he once again manages to both remain true to the elements
that have made his success but bring them a step further.
Having become since his début an essential act of the
electronic / industrial scene, often requested by festivals
and having influenced quite a few younger acts, Detritus
hasn't been sitting on his success. If “Origin”
was a dark, brooding and downtempo work, “Fractured”
shows Detritus
having become harder and more incisive, and yet carry on (if
not yet improve) the extremely careful production of his sophomore
CD. Far from a come-back to the grittier times of “Endogenous”,
“Fractured” makes further use of the guitars and
samples with 2006's “Thresholds”
single, but still remain true to the orchestral, emotional richness
which define Detritus's
sound.
Compact, straight to the point and yet varied (all the more
with the inclusion of remixes by fellow label mates DJ
Hidden and Keef
Baker), “Fractured” is a cohesive collection
of evocative tracks. At times dreamy, at times fierce, here
is an album that impresses by his production and his balance,
and which will without a doubt seduce both the may long-time
Detritus-fans
as well as anybody interested in this careful mixture of drum'n'bass
and expressive acoustic sounds.
