Fusion

The 4-word blurb on the CD cover (ambient industrial electro noise) is a great summary. From Voice Industrie-like atmospherics to clanging beats straight outta Death Guild - and that's just track 1 - this all-instrumental disc has enough variations on its general rivet theme to keep the listener interested. Each track has multiple themes, and some songs (4 for example) introduce a theme and then return with variations on it - good stuff. All of the tracks have their merits, and since the CD is basically one tune in 9 parts, it can be a little hard to pull any single one out of the whole. But try: 1 - diverse; 3 - catchy and sinister; 5 - sad and plaintive; 8 - crunchy, shimmery layers.
