about

“Residing somewhere between dark wave, post punk and batcave the Italians succeed in creating a charming niche with their debut album ‘Oblivion’...It remains mysterious how just a release produced in Italian summer is able to create such a terrific end of days atmosphere...”
(Sonic Seducer)

“Ash Code have successfully managed to blend the cold despair of the post-punk of the early eighties, with modern catchy sounds, and deliver with Oblivion one of the best darkwave albums of the year.” 94/100
(peek-a-boo)

“It’s impossible to do anything other than to play this CD over and over again on repeat—you wont be able to just listen to it once...Thus In stating all of this, the arc of suspense of this album deserves a solid 10/10.”
(Post-Punk.com)

“Un’ottima prova in stile “buona la prima” questo “Oblivion”, che testimonia ancora una volta che anche qui da noi c’è spazio vitale per sonorità che nel resto d’Europa stanno conoscendo una seconda (terza?) giovinezza e all’interno delle quali si stanno cimentando band italiche che, se debitamente supportate, possono recare lustro a tutto il paese.”
(Rockit.it)

“Le mélange de minimal et de darkwave produit par le groupe vise l’efficacité dans la qualité. Pas de temps mort, la boîte martèle d’emblée, lance le ton, les suites d’accords sont simples, étrangement familières…Claviers et basses se complètent, se renforcent dans leur progression mélodique; quant à la voix grave, faussement monocorde de Alessandro, elle ajoute une touche clinique dans l’organique ou d’organique dans le clinique si vous captez l’idée.“ 5/6
(Guts of Darkness)

“Oblivion non tradisce le attese e si rivela come un ottimo disco; 10 tracce tra Darkwave ed Elettro-Pop virato in nero, con tante potenziali hit per un sound che parte da Napoli e guarda a Berlino.” 8/10
(Ascension Magazine)

"Oblivion ist ein Debütalbum, das einen gespannt zurücklässt.” 8/10
(Ox Fanzine)

"Oblivion is just the beginning of Ash Code, and I am sure there is a lot more good to come from this band. Darkwave with hints of synthpop, catchy and tormented."
(Gothic-rock.com)

".. gli Ash Code prendono spunto dal passato per dare vita a un sound che risulta "fresco" e interessante...Un esordio col botto, con le potenzialità per far breccia nei tanti cuori oscuri della penisola e non solo." 7/10
(ondarock.it)

" Gli Ash Code si fanno portatori di un esordio febbrile ed inquieto, capace di tradurre il tema algido espressionista caro a certa poetica rock crepuscolare con l'abrasiva funzione del neo industriale.Seguiteli." 8/10
(Rumore)
