"Cenotaph" is a 1992 song by German industrial band X Marks the Pedwalk. It was released as a stand-alone maxi single by Zoth Ommog in Europe, in LP and CD formats.

Summary

X Marks the Pedwalk released "Cenotaph" through the Zoth Ommog label in 1992. It was released as a maxi single on both LP and CD formats. The single included two other songs, "Never Dare to Ask" and "Helpless", while the CD version featured an additional track, "Seclusion".[1] It is the fourth single by X Marks the Pedwalk, and the fifth by the duo Sevren Ni-Arb and Regan Eracs.

Side-Line magazine gave "Cenotaph" a positive review, writing that the band was beginning to solidify its own sound. Side-Line's review called "Cenotaph" a good follow-up to the previous single "Abattoir", and wrote that it is "a techno nightmare that will from time to time remind you of Skinny Puppy (probably for the voice?), but X-Marks The Pedwalk is becoming in itself a label of quality."[1] German magazines Zillo and Hysterika also gave the single positive reviews.[2]

Like many of the preceding X Marks the Pedwalk singles, the song Cenotaph does not appear on any of the standard full-length releases. It does, however, make appearances on the compilations Four Fit and Experiences, as well as in part of the song "Mi_X Marks the Pedwalk" on Drawback.
