"After wearing out our copies of their Custom Made Music debut Interceptors, and seeing their deafening, sensory-overload live shows, we knew we had to release something by SCREEN VINYL IMAGE, who we said were ‘one of two good bands in DC’ in early 2010. On the ‘Siberian Eclipse’ 7-inch, SVI have put out possibly their most melodic and dance-oriented work yet, building on the deathrace drones of their previous psychedelic synth excursions. The title track, a staple of their live sets for nearly two years now, appears here in its final state, featuring a stuttering drum pattern backing frigid synths and melting-glacier guitar swirls. ‘New Visions’ finds SVI grafting their heavily processed and futuristic sound to a more classic synthpop melody, akin to Low-Life-era New Order playing the Hacienda in 2084.”
