As made clear already by widely-spread preview track "Kill It in the Morning" and first single "Sick," The Twilight Sad's third full-length, NO ONE CAN EVER KNOW, marks a sonic shift for the band. Freshly inspired by a listening diet of Cabaret Voltaire, Can, Liars, Magazine, Autechre, and Public Image Limited, the band turn to a dark, synth-heavy sound for NO ONE CAN EVER KNOW; the resulting LP shares thematic and sonic space with the most innovative offerings from Depeche Mode, the Cure, or even Nine Inch Nails.
