This time album also does not disappoint. One of the best export products of the United Kingdom in alternative music, is back with released in 2010, a new edition of "Very.Bad.Things". Record was enriched with the bonus of 3 additional tracks and 8 remixes in mp3 format, which makes it even more interesting.

Singer Jay Smith sows terror, mixed with anxiety, singing his hellishly cold evocations, that contain a primary power of eradication. Included on the album dance rhythms will put in a joyful gambol even the most stubborn ones. It is made by a weird mix of sounds inspired by the works of Gary Numan, a specific guru of all longing for rebellious 80-ies, who still inspires, and in this version of the record there is his cover - "We Have A Technical".
Punk voice, singing both with aggression, while on the other hand, singing cold, almost toned texts, combined with a catchy beat, sometimes saturated with industrial guitars, draws the attention. And what did the Assemblage 23 with "Access Denied!" is a fully professional job.

Despite some technical glitches - we are not dealing with a typical caressed studio sound - the group managed to create an interesting album. Undoubtedly, their managed to collect tracks on the album, which are characterized by wildness, that is reflected both in the music and in the choice of a repertoire. There is no scent of a schematic approach and the most innocent looking cover in no way prepares for the content of a devilish machinery under the sign of dark electro.
