As a group whose work has spanned the best part of eighteen years, Ain Soph have always acted as a touchstone for the post-industrial scene, whether in the form of their early ritualistic utterances such as I and II (issued by Misty Circles in 1984 and 1985 respectively) which gave us a style which was to find its purest and most sophisticated form in 1988's Kshatriya, or in their later and more classically-influenced work such as the Cthulhu-issued Ain Soph/Sigillum S split cassette or the St…
