One of the less heralded British bands of the late '80s and early '90s, Loop combined drone and shoegazey rock in a manner similar to Spacemen 3. The influence of Suicide is obvious, as is that of krautrock groups like Can and Faust. Where Loop lack the subtlety of some of their influences, they make up for it with pure loud riffage and infinite attitude.

Mojo (Publisher) (p.119) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "FADE OUT was characterized by a more focused heaviness, carrying traces of Krautrock and post-punk within its meshed guitars and insistent grooves."
