I love the 'on air' singing at the end

Prince from the biomass
For an album that delights and confounds me in equal measure, wedged between two much more celebrated records, I still think about it a lot. It is disjointed and strange, and not everything works, but it's definitely "my" Air album

The walking definition of underrated, absolutely a lost classic.
Not what people were looking for at the time of its release but time has been very kind to it.

Great album. Much darker than Moon Safari, really than anything they've done. Virgin Suicides has some of that sinister feel.

Great and detailed new interview in the latest Les Inrockuptibles (France) tying in to their “Moon Safari” 25th Anniversary tour. They refer to Virgin Suicides as their “dark” album and 10,000Hz as their “tormented” one :)

Reminds me I never listened to Virgin Suicides. I shall rectify this

One of their best imo, it's somewhat repetitive because it's a soundtrack but has a real hypnotic quality
