In 1999 USER hit the studio once more and after 10 months of obsessive tracking, The Last Days of Beauty evolved into a collection of 11 songs. Mixed by the Vince Jones at Unkle Vinkies House of Snakes in Vancouver BC and with session men drummer Pat Haviisto And bassist Dave Lee laying down all the drums and bass, USER lights up with vocals keyboard and gibson guitar. Style wise, as compared to USERS 1996 debut "Semi-Mental Journey", Last Days digs further into the rock element with more fused layered keyboard textures, violins,(J Zubot) more explorative beats and great bass lines.. USER points that "this was a very difficult album to finish, as i rode a personal rollercoaster ,I really did not have the energy to finish it, basically running on empty" But it did get finished and on this disc you will find the art of albummaking, . From the opening track "Downers" a corkscrew dive into a blender of emotions, the throw it all off and wash the floor attitude of "Slave" while "Invisible Dream" snakes along a path not seen too much in modern music, the tender jerkiness of "Wilted" and foreshadowing apocalyptic industrial "RubberAss" adds up to make The Last Days of Beauty one slice of life.
