LATEST:

Now, fourteen years after the release of their last full-length album ?Shadowblack?, Click Click present their new EP/Mini-Album ?Skin and Bones?, a 7 track EP/Mini-Album consisting of nearly all new material (only ?Damage? has been previously released elsewhere, but is featured here in a completely new version). In contrast to the more experimental ?Shadowblack? the new release includes genuine songs, all featuring Adrian Smith's charismatic voice. An incredibly intense, dark, atmospheric release, enriched by Smith's incomparably fragile yet aggressive vocals which were and are the thrilling trademark of Click Click. Eschewing hard, loud and overproduced for a simple, essential, urban intensity, this is electronic music for those who are willing and able to read between the lines.
