Active for many years now under a variety of monikers including Neuntöter Der Plage, Xombie, Redrot, Post-Mortem Junkie and Fabrico Incubo, Ryan Oppermann has established himself as a dependable purveyor of pathological sounds of all sorts. "Chosen Powerless" is his first CD album and it marks the milestone with 5 venomous doses of analogue synthesizer textures that would have been at home on Slaughter Productions (which did release some early Redrot and NDP albums after all). The disease is spreading.
