Shortly after 2012’s soul-baring ‘Hell Money’ and its stylistic twist, Jerome Reuter quickly released a monumental industrial/folk EP, on which the old industrial influences are not only reincorporated into ROME's musical landscape, but are taken quite a step further. “The Colony,” an almost 40-minute long industrial tour-de-force divided into two separate tracks, is the main course here: a barrage of textures, bleak industrial loops, straight-forward noise and eerie dark ambient soundscapes with a distinctive ROMEan feel are mixed into one soothing cocktail. This limited edition EP is further enhanced by including alternative versions of two songs from the album “A Passage to Rhodesia” (2014). Total running time: approx. 46 minutes!
