Listening to Rapt ("Abduction") is like getting slapped with obese fish by Mick Harris at full blast. "French Larm" is the easiest answer, though Rapt's walls of noise erupt more violently, are of prolonged duration, and possess a characteristic "blubbery" feel to the productions not always inherent to the recording methods. If Larm affirmed optimism in their rage against the machine, Rapt affirmed pessimism at it's iciest. Complete collection of all known recordings (31 tracks in 38 minutes!) spanning demo/reh/live/comp and the aborted 12", 1984 to 1986.
