Robin Crutchfield was one of DNA's founding members - Raven's Wing

Robin Crutchfield was one of DNA's founding members. After leaving the NYC band, he formed his own project Dark Day, devoted to an experimental and disquieting use of synth. After releasing Hands in the Dark / Invisible Man, an interesting single, he published his magnum opus Exterminating Angel: minimal synth textures, gelid bells' rings, screaming guitars, robotic vocals, theatrical recitations, baroque sensibility and a dark, distopic and depressed attitude makes this album an innovative output in early 80s scene. Robin Cruthcfield's journey into a desolate and mechanized modernity has the shape of a deep and disturbing psychodrama; not very far away from no wave's aim.
