referencing House Of Usher (XXXX - Strong EP), 12", EP, SAPH 04

The XXXX-strong EP by Aqua Fortis. The title track, based on Edgar Allan Poe's "The Fall Of The House Of Usher" is an exceptionally dark mix of weird basslines, tripping beats and excerpts from the story:
"They looked at the great house smiling,
it began to crack down the middle, as with an earthquake,
my brain reeled as I saw the mighty wall's rushing a sunder.
It was a long tumultuous shouting sound,
like the voice of a thousand waters,
and the deep and dank tarn at my feet closed solemnly and silently over the fragments of the House of Usher!"

A monster from the deepest, darkest recesses of 1992.
