"Can you believe there are now four C.I.A. Debutante LP's in the world? That's right, this newest one, Trespass is batting in the cleanup spot and it is very to task; the strongest, most focused effort put forth yet. Narrator/guitarist Nathan Roche is at the peak of his oratory and string mangling prowess. His recitation over flared fret work, conjoined with Paul Bonnet's alchemical electronic stitchery summons forth a promethean tableau that's inexplicably both gothic and futuristic. Imagine if Mary Shelley had created Roxy Music instead of Frankenstein? Trespass burns with a demanding urgency, its majesty sweeping across time from the charnel houses of Ingolstadt, Barvaria, to the Offworld shoulders of Orion -- frontiers! Whatever you thought of their previous three albums, those are now but tears in the rain. With Trespass, could C.I.A. Debutante be approaching the pinnacle of Godhead? The Fates whisper only, 'perhaps.'"
