Stained Impressions

"Stained Impressions" is the third studio album by the Belgian electronic and industrial band A Split-Second. The album was released in 1990, following the band's prior successful releases, "Ballistic Statues" and "...From the Inside." The band, originally formed by Marc Ickx and Peter Bonne, is known for their innovative contributions to the EBM and electro-industrial music genres. This album, however, saw a stylistic shift with a more melodic and less aggressive sound, indicating the band's evolution in their musical journey.

The album features a total of nine tracks, each being a unique blend of electronic beats and rhythmic synths. The use of infectious grooves and haunting lyrics present in the songs highlight the band's ability to push boundaries and experiment with their sound. Tracks such as "Flesh" and "The Colosseum Crash" are notable highlights that showcase this evolution.

Despite the band's deviation from their earlier, harsher sound, "Stained Impressions" was met with positive reception, underlining A Split-Second's adaptability and creativity in the ever-changing landscape of electronic music. This album further solidified A Split-Second's status as pioneers in the industrial and EBM music scenes.
