Darker/Cut is a compilation album by C-Tec, released on 5 September 2018 by Armalyte Industries.[1][2]

Reception

Flux awarded Darker/Cut a nine out of ten and said "every track has a story and a meaning, and we have no fillers or dull moments" and that the album represents "an important page in the history of electronic music, showing different facets and graced by great artists."[3] Regen said Darker "has De Meyer's vocals, which are a hallmark of '80s era industrial, as well as Heal's own chainsaw of a voice, and blasts of heavily processed guitars" and "felt more experimental than the next album, Cut, which seems to shift musical styles more, as well as a greater employment of empty space throughout the album."[4]
