Welcome to the End

Nice blog post title... I bet some of you thought I was announcing the end of Ampliozone. I'm not. I hope to keep this going for a long time. Actually, this week's SongSpot is a song called 'Welcome to the End' off the album The Universe is Expanding from the synth-pop band Anything Box. The group was formed in New Jersey in 1986 by Claude S. with his friends Dania Morales and Paul Rijnders. Their name comes from the title of a book of short stories. A lot of their work is described as soothing and melodic. One of their albums, Worth, is described as the best album Anything Box ever made, but unfortunately was never released commercially. However, it looks like you can buy it at CD Baby.
