I was supposed to write of each band separately, but the bands differ from each other to such an extent that I decided to treat them as a whole, as if one group, because the musicians share the similar approach towards creating the atmosphere. The use the same methods that were used yet in the 70ties. All bands, apart from cool colours, combine samples of the politicians' and speakers' voices with the bell sounds, hums and crashes generated by virtual or analogue synthesizers in the background. Slow, hypnotizing sounds included on the CD are destined for the musically educated and demanding listener; they are like a murder upon the soul. Which means it's boring, secondarily repulsive. After all, what else we should expect from the genre that has been exploited in any possible way for years? Still, there are bands that have the ability of invigorating this carcase, put some life in it and making it interesting for the listener. But there's nothing like that here. No impulses of initiation. The whole CD constitutes certain entity, as if a story. Industrial story. Hysteria of dehumanized exultations. The music included on the CD will remain closed in the community that likes such sounds. Terror for the ears. The music for masochists and people living in the musical museum. The graphics are of good quality, as usual, still what's inside isn't that good at all.
