" Rats Live On No Evil Star, originally a palindrome, is now a combined project by Bernd Jestram and J. Edward Donald. These recordings from the summer of 2009 are poised between autistic sketches of a foreign and personal planet and an attempt at opening up the retro jail cell of music and pseudo earnestness of post-modern music. After hardcore came Joy Division and then the acoustic guitar. Playing with occultism in the guise of post-industrial while at heart remaining romantic, some songs speak of urban fatalism and thwarted passageways from a sovereign voice deeper than Ian Curtis, more confused than Daniel Johnston.
