Press Reviews
# # # # # "ALBUM OF THE WEEK" on Radio 4ZZZ-FM Brisbane Australia, November 1999 # # # # # ALBUM OF THE WEEK *** @ "Australian Music Biz" web-zine, December 1999. # # # # # "... an amazing record from start to finish... entertaining yet informative..." Warren Wheeler, "Tertangala" student newspaper of Wollongong University, August 99. # # # # # "... an awesome collection of hard-edged electronica, which cleverly employs samples to make a very perceptive statement about the Australian political landscape. Thought-provoking to say the least, this release, to me, holds the true spirit of industrial much more than the over-hyped N.I.N. and such like. In a word - ESSENTIAL!" Barry Bardoe, "Core" T.V. show, Channel 31, Melbourne, Australia, September 1999. # # # # # “...intelligent propaganda... awesome sounds... stunning acid sequences, mind-blowing synths, spooky new wave vocals... over the top of diverse, sometimes harsh, electronic beats... of the highest order!” B.M.A. music magazine, July 1999 # # # # # "... 5/5... tongue-in-cheek... a peculiar brand of unconventional but catchy, and often danceable, electronic music... clever, funny and politically aware... a sophisticated and mature work... " Peter Still, "Woroni", student newspaper of the Australian National University, August 99. # # # # # “... I bought the new NIN single today (huge NIN fan) and it paled next to your music. In other words, I'm very impressed!!!” Virus X, Adelaide, August 1999. |
