Description/Reviews
Musically we're dealing with an album that resides in the borderlands between art rock, alternative metal and industrial music somewhere. Frail, light toned and reverberating guitar licks, chugging compact riff walls and wailing, emotional guitar soloing all have their place, the bass guitar can be steady and supporting just as much as driving and energetic, the rhythms non existent, basic or intricate. If you enjoy variety there's a lot of it to be found on this album, and occasional intriguing details I don't encounter too often to boot. Light toned, brittle impact riffs for instance. One distinct and notable trait that does merit a special mention are the lead vocals. Miss Gonzales has a strong, melodic and harmonic voice, pitch perfect as far as I can tell, with something of an expertise in tightly controlled, emotional delivery. Fans of high quality vocal performances will enjoy this part of the proceedings no matter what they think about the music itself.
