Occupying a halfway point between Throbbing Gristle and Cabaret Voltaire without ever quite sounding like either, We Be Echo is Kevin Thorne.

Thorne's first foray into music came after a chance meeting with Throbbing Gristle on Tottenham Court Road in 1979. A few months later he met Raye Calouri at the legendary Throbbing Gristle / Cabaret Voltaire / Rema Rema gig at Central YMCA, London. Soon after, the duo formed the short-lived Third Door From The Left. After the demise of TDFTL, Thorne formed We Be Echo.

"Facets" is a multi-decade collection of songs from We Be Echo - encompassing their earliest recordings from 1981 to their latest in 2023. Included is their first vinyl release, "Alleycat", originally found on The Elephant Table Album issued in 1983. It also includes their song from Cause For Concern's EP "Stuff The Neighbours, Play It Loud!". Other sought after songs include two versions of 'The Witches Burn', and an unreleased single, 'Shake Shake Go!' (also released on Frux's "Let The Pigeons In" album). The second and third CD in this set are new songs that didn't fit onto the album being recorded at the time - they range from the sombre 'As Seasons Change' to the surprisingly upbeat 'Sugar'.

"Facets" is aptly named as it does, indeed, show off the many facets of We Be Echo - there is a lot of music here that will challenge and 'entertain'.
