05:22:09:12 Off is an album by industrial/ EBM group Front 242 released by Sony on 2 November 1993. The album peaked at #27 on the CMJ Radio Top 150. [1]
The album's title is a simple substitution cipher for the word "evil"; where each letter is represented by its equivalent numerical position in the alphabet. The album was unusual in that it primarily features a female voice, that of Christine "99" Kowalski, on vocals, with Jean-Luc De Meyer only appearing on a few tracks.
