Much to my shame, until recently I didn’t know much about Ramleh. I knew the name, of course, as anyone did who was familiar with the more obscure strands of post-industrial English underground music. But while I was – and remain – a fan of artists like Whitehouse, Current 93 and Nurse With Wound, Ramleh had always passed me by. That name, however, had always intrigued me, its two harsh syllables hinting at a mix of violence and foreignness (it’s an alternative spelling of Ramla, a town in Israel).
