Venetian Snares is the name for the prolific Aaron Funk. Find Candace is one of half a dozen releases that Funk produced in 2003 alone. His output has slowed down in recent years, as he only graced us with a single full-length in 2008. But this here is one of his easily over-looked albums, as it was issued (and now deleted) on the obscure, German label, Hymen.

This is considered the "sister album" to his classic Doll Doll Doll, probably his best known album aside from his genre breaking Rossz Csillag Alatt Született. While the production is similar to Doll Doll Doll, if not a few notches higher, the content isn't as abrasive or terrifying. The track "Dolleater," which originally showed up on the the Doll Doll Doll LP, is as bleak as is gets. So it's fair to say that Find Candace is a median representation of Funk's work.

If you're wondering about the perverse artwork, it's by the Japanese based, British artist Trevor Brown, who's managed to grace quite a few Venetian Snares covers, as well as have a lot of his work confiscated by Japanese Customs, for being too pornographic.
