After reading an article discussing the subject of Scientism, Mike embarked on a journey to write and record his debut album "Cirrhotic". The album represents a culmination of Mike's thoughts and rather strong reactions to the above subject matter, but too, marks a brief departure from his regular role of guitarist and vocalist in the band Sunday Flood to write and record solo material of his own.

| Skratch |
Mike Allen was guitarist and vocalist for Sunday Flood. Some of the dream-pop approach is taken by that group here, but the pale luminescent dawn of the nascent shoegazer now breaks forth a stormy and wind-swept day of post-industrial electronica akin to Aphex Twin and Nine Inch Nails. Guitar textures and the treated sounds of other instruments are broad-stroked with umbers, grays, and other dark earth tones in this portrait of nightmares and conflict. Breaking the mood are the islands of vocals, which are about as dark as early Depeche Mode or The Cure.
-Tom "Tearaway" Schulte
