Review: If you close your eyes and concentrate hard enough whilst listening to XTR Human's Atavism you wouldn't be blamed for thinking the ghost of Ian Curtis is singing through the jangly guitars, ping-ponging delay, industrial sized reverb and minor-key synths of their music. Add a bit of Nick Cave, some Nitzer Ebb and Sisters Of Mercy influences and you've got a contemporary band that's mastered all the hallmarks of what made whisky soaked goth, minimal-wave and post-punk so good.
