*note: this is the bandcamp tracklist, the Disaro CDR was a bit of a mess

"The High Road" is one of the finest releases on Disaro, a mash-up of synth-pop, darkwave, coldwave, ebm and everything else that was hot in the 80s. But the album doesn't sound old, it has a modern feel to it. The titular track is such a gem, the melody line and chorus are glorious, and can be looped for eternity. But probably my personal fav is "Emily", the most witchhouse track of them all (one could argue you could turn this into a proper witch EP with cutting the number of tracks to 4-5). Second half is more aggresive, EBM flows deep in those tracks' veins. Love this album, and I'm happy to have both the CDR and vinyl.

It's also availble FOR FREE on bandcamp, which is a streal tbh - please donate to TPM if you can:
