PSYCHIC ENEMIES NETWORK, Psychic enemies network
Self released, 2002
AMBIENT INDUSTRIAL
Instrumental mix of dark industrial ambiences, jazz, ethnic instruments and minimalist voice samples (reminiscent of the Anti Group).
As the band name hints, it all sounds like a therapy program, which climaxes in the last lament/song.
The same material appears in multiple places in the album, which makes a few of the songs somewhat redundant (such as 5 and 10).
Fred's picks: 4
01 - 08:55 - Vibraphone and processed wind instrument samples.
02 - 06:19 - Samples, jazz beat @ 2 minutes, garbled voices.
03 - 05:53 - Metallic ambient sounds, ethnic beat @ 3 minutes, voices.
04 - 05:14 - accoustic jazz beat, vibraphone, jazz electric guitar, ethnic instruments.
05 - 04:06 - Redundant: soundbed of song #2
06 - 00:34 - Experimental
07 - 01:39 - Synth pipe lead, reversed sound samples.
08 - 06:47 - Dark ambient synth, mid-speed jazz beat @ 2 minutes, rhythmic bass.
09 - 09:55 - Distorted of a Frehcn folk song, ambient synths, string instrument loop
10 - 06:09 - Redundant: another version of song #4
11 - 06:04 - Therapy climax: computer generated voice lament, organs.
