  • Description

    New album Body Machine takes a slightly different approach, integrating a more minimal, EBM-like approach to arrangements, as well as some left-field stylistic swings. It's a good sound for the band that helps the songs feel more impactful - as evidenced by single and lead-off track "Signal in the Noise", the use of a harder-hitting programmed drums and a simple cycling bassline Provides an excellent framework for their synth melodies and vocalist Mercury's varied delivery. To put it plainly, the more stripped down and groovy the songs are, the better they get across. The detuned bass a-la-And-One of "Ghost Writer" and the sample laden "Hell Awaits" (sadly not a Slayer cover) are better for the skeletonized approach, each with a little extra vocal seasoning of their own to remember them by; the former with a full-on stage whisper of the title, the latter with a distorted metal growl.
