The album marked a radical change in the band's direction, leaving the power electronics opera of 'Oedipus Dethroned' for an even more ritualistic, experimental and epic sound. 'Virgin Mind' was recorded in an analog 24 channel recording studio and included a variety of vintage synthesizers and acoustic instruments such as trombones, organs, pianos, violins, and percussions.

Originally published on tape in 1996 by Old Europa Cafe, "Opera" was a notable personal piece that blended noise and power electronics by mixing piercing high frequencies, a subtle and threatening vocal presence and classical music, buried under layers of violent harsh noise. Alongside Dead Body Love's classic "Low-Fi Power Carnage", Iugula Thor's "Opera"...
