"That operettAmorale is so good and strikingly original is a real triumph for Massimo and Pierce, the duo behind Black Sun Productions." Tony Dickie, compulsiononline.com

"operettAmorale is a crowning achievement for Massimo & Pierce musically and it establishes these two musicians and their fellow artists as fitting inheritors of the post industrial mantle first realized by Peter Christopherson and John Balance. Music lover seeking to tap into something sensual, personal, eclectic and experimental are encouraged to embark on the voyage of operettAmorale. Like their predecessors Coil, Black Sun Productions has once again established an unabashedly queer radical perspective and presence within the post industrial music community continuing the legacy of talent and spiritualized electronic psychedelia first begun over two decades ago by the pioneering musicians of Coil." Malahki Thorn, Heathen Harvest
