Revert due to advertising language[edit]

I saw the article had been "advertisement" - quite rightly, as it had been filled with hyperbolic language apparently taken from promotional material from their record label. I therefore reverted to the last edit before the inappropriate additions, from 7 November 2017. There may be a few details from subsequent edits that can appropriately be re-added to the article. -- Infrogmation (talk) 16:25, 7 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
