The traditions of (french) Chanson and (american) Folk are becoming more and more influential in their current work. Chansonniers like LÉO FERRÉ, JACQUES BREL and singer/songwriter heroes like CAVE, CASH and COHEN are obvious influences. The previous album "Flowers From Exile” already gave a first impression of what they themselves call 'Chanson Noir' – the darker side of singer/songwriter tradition: post-industrial-folk with bits and pieces of Electronic Pop, complex arrangements of breathtaking melodies, mesmerizing ballads of lyrical beauty, underlining ROME’s ethos of never faltering or remaining uninvolved.

The EP/Single features four songs among which the exclusive and intimate track "One Flesh”. The creative input of new member Nikos Mavridis (on violin and other stringed instruments) has become more and more apparent, most obviously in the reinvented, "stringed” versions of two classic ROME tracks "Der Erscheinungen Flucht" and "Der Brandtaucher" from the highly successful album „Masse Mensch Material".
