Press Reviews Phil McNamara, Worcester cab driver and reviewer for New England Performer. To get your CD reviewed by Phil then contact him at spaceguy3@msn.com. RATOBASHER ­ "XAND" Recording Information Unavailable) This is kinda' weird. It's a 20 song opus, but they're all short enough that it times out to under a half hour. RATOBASHER is pretty much one man, Nathan Westerlind and a whole bunch of electronic toys. The first two cuts are a mix of keyboard effects and garbled vocals, didn't do much for me. By the third cut, "Bridge that Must be Burned," firing up speedy beats from the drum machine. At times it veers off the break beats for some classically influenced Goth. It's gothic enough to get depressed to and catchy enough to dance to. Tracks four and five "Orchestrated Maniacal Crime" and "It Is He Who Turns The Screws" throws in found noise of industrial machinery in between it's heavy bass lines. "Last Call" offers a combination of fuzzed out bass rifts and fuzzy industrial beats for a real head trip. I'm thinking that I should've smoked a big joint before listening to this. Unfortunately times short. Nathan was short on these CDs and requested, "If you don't like it, give it back." Well, I'm keeping it. If drug influenced psychedelic techno is for you, drop Nathan a line at bassesofdeath@hotmail.com. Maybe he'll be able to dig up a few more CDs.
