Founded in 2014, Gross Net is the project of Belfast-based artist Philip Quinn, guitarist of the now defunct Girls Names. A departure from the techno-driven sound of 2015's Quantitative Easing, Gross Net Means Gross Net bridges dark electronics, avant garde experimentation, and black humor.

Musically, Gross Net is influenced by the political upheavals in the US and UK in 2016, the refugee crisis, and the consequences of present-day capitalism. Throughout the album, melodies of rapture and unease duel, creating a dizzying anxiety ala the minimal electronic doom of Coil and Bish Bosch-era Scott Walker and the orchestral ambience of Popol Vuh.
