What do you get when you mix the ferocity of
BILE, the deadly delicacy of
KMFDM, and the dark aura of
MARILYN MANSON? You get the Italian psycho industrial band
SPECTRUM-X. Consisting of Nullifier X and Candy Bones, SPECTRUM-X has earned a cult like status since the release of their 2007 CD “Tea Party With Zombies” (released by the Japanese Record label
DARKEST LABYRINTH). Their latest full length release entitled “Darkest Night Ever” features 14 tracks of hard hitting, industrial chaos that leaves the listener with a feeling of tension and fear. The new heavier guitar sound can be attributed to Kiwamu of the band
BLOOD, who lends his musical talents on this CD, creating a distinctly heavier sound than their previous release.
The CD starts off aggressively but looses some of it's punch half way through. The drum programs become a bit too repetitive for me, and the song structures are just too simplistic. All and all, "Darkest Night Ever" is a good follow up for this up-and-coming Italian Industrial band. I give them 3 out of 5 skulls.
