About the album

With their second album released in 1999, "The Point at Which It Falls Apart," Mesh achieved a breakthrough—both critically and artistically as well as commercially. In its 25th anniversary year, Mesh is re-releasing this long out-of-print milestone in an exclusive artbook edition packed with bonus material. The British dark synthpop band was founded in 1991 when singer and guitarist Mark Hockings and keyboardist and singer Richard Silverthorn discovered musical commonalities at a concert that led to the formation of Mesh. This artistic partnership has since defined the legacy of Mesh. The creative synergy of Mesh has always stemmed from a strong complementary division of roles: Richard Silverthorn composes the music, while Mark Hockings writes stirring and profound lyrics that infuse emotional depth into the soundscapes.

Mesh's musical journey began with the release of the "Fragile" EP in 1994 and their debut album "In This Place Forever" in 1996. Their major release "Who Watches Over Me" in 2002 propelled Mesh back into the spotlight, marking another peak in their illustrious career. A wave of popularity across Europe, especially in Germany, elevated the British band on festival lineups. "Automation Baby" (2013) reached number 33 on the German album charts and dominated alternative charts across Europe. With "Looking Skyward" (2016), Mesh climbed even higher to reach number 12 on the German charts. Currently, Mark Hockings and Richard Silverthorn are working on the next Mesh studio album. To bridge the gap for their long-time but also newer fans, the duo is making their long-out-of-stock and highly sought-after second album "The Point at Which It Falls Apart" available again in a carefully remastered version.
