11/08/2014, Review by Filip VAN MUYLEM
A while ago they played in Antwerp and I was literally blown out of my socks. A lot of people told me afterwards they were even much better than the headliner (Portion Control).
I knew they were working on their first album and couldn’t wait. Today is my day!
‚Headcrash‚ is one of the tracks that I still remember from the gig: the minimal EBM sound and typical Front242 movements reminded me of the springtime of these EBM-gods. Somehow Akalotz manages to bring back the 80’s into 2014! ‚Time to Destroy‚ sounds a bit like PNE, but with better English and a softer touch. Love the beats! This is the track I wanted to call ‚Headshot‚ in my review. It’s an absolute highlight! ‚Body Crushed Bones‚ is another great retro EBM track, a must have for EBM lovers! ‚Lust of Power‚ was a winner on stage and is on record a jewel too.
The background voice is a nice extra! ‚Shift to Evil‚ is a short one but has enough in it to stand ground! If your ‚Blood Pressure‚ is not rising on this one than you are indeed a cold lizard! Start to dance, electro and EBM lovers! After that it all goes fast. I remember ‚Where are you from‚, ‚Play and Command‚ and ‚Rise and Fall‚ from the live set too! ‚Bring me down‚ is a nice end of the regular tracks.
After that we get 2 remixes and strangely enough that is when I hear the difference of the quality… The remixes are mixed a lot louder; the beats come out like anno 2014 and rock really hard. ‚Blood Pressure (Invasion of Female Logic Remix)‚ is the first one. Same goes for ‚Body Crushed Bones (SadoSato Remix)‚. It’s pretty painful to realize, but then again: I was sucked into the 80’s sound and that amazed me.
I hope you go see them on stage and get caught by their stage power play!
Thumbs up!
