Press Reviews
This psychotic project consists of sound technicians Raven F. and Myc Beckman with mastering by Daev Andrect of Imperative Reaction. Here your psyche will be devoured by untamed emotionalism, synthetic melodies and erratic compositions. Engage what may be very well on my top ten list this year, for most innovative bands of 2000. For sixty-seven minutes and twenty seconds, we engage ten brilliant electro/industrial tracks for the strong-minded. The opening track, "Justified", opens with whispering and twisted voxx laced by piano and string melodies that bleed into various arrays of synthetics. "In Shambles" pulses into the spacey militant structures of demented ramblings and spontaneous arrangements of samples. On "String Games" we engage the emotional depths of dark bass string arrangements and diversified percussives threaded into the angst driven madness of Myc. This track proves to be one of my favorites from the first listen. "Fourth Estate" merges various militant, drum'n'bass, & trip-hop beats with spasmodic vocal rantings and sampled synthetics throughout. Track five, "Showered in Glass", featured on the Das Bunker comp from PBR, veils it's unbelievable brilliance once again, need I say more. "Life" throws it ravaging ferocity into your skull overloading your mind with an array of sickness. "Enemy Within" swallows your soul with precarious melodies and more viciously emotional voxx emphasizing complexity in arrangements and sample effects. Keeping much with same formula as on track four, "Cypher" brings into play another powerful composition. "Cynical Bliss" paces with a driving electro atrocity that pushes some guitar elements into place, adding even more depth to this massive overload of deranged compositions. "Civilized", another ravaging and severe track, unravels into percussive fierceness and unstable analog string arrangements and sample synthetics. A necessity as an emotional outlet for the strong-minded. Highest recommendations.----reviewed by Alan McClelland from the webzine SEVEN ---------- |
