MASTIC SCUM
”CTRL”
(Massacre)
I have no idea how you can survive as a smaller band releasing albums 4 years apart. That to me seems like suicide in today’s overly competitive band market. I don’t think I’ve ever come upon this Austrian lot before. So it is with some expectation that I’ll take this one on. Looking at the cover to this one you’d be forgiven thinking that this is going to be a Fear Factory rip off. But it isn’t. I have no idea how I could have missed their previous 4 albums because this is some really cool death metal. There is a robotic, futuristic feeling to this that could be mistaken for a Fear Factory influence now that I think of it. But where Fear Factory has more of a groove this is heavier. This could be the soundtrack to the Borg overtake of human mankind – “resistance is futile”. Anders Ekdahl
