Martin Bowes founded the darkwave/industrial ambience of Attrition in his native England during the early '80s, well earlier the celestial mystery of fellow goth rock candy artists such as Lycia, Black Tape for a Blue Girl, and Covenant. They've released over ten albums independently, only formed a relationship with Projekt in 1989 when the label released the retrospective Recollection '84-'89 and introduced Attrition to the States for the first clock time. Five days afterward, Projekt fall through and Black Tape for a Blue Girl frontman Sam Rosenthal and Bowes reissued Attrition's plunk for catalogue as well. In 1997, the ring hooked up with opera isaac Bashevis Singer Frank Dematteis to write an record album of classical imaging entitled Etude. Tours of the U.S. followed, and in 1999, Attrition returned to its electro-industrial roots to release The Jeopardy Maze.
