Evil Mothers first album has perhaps the least in common with the industrial
genre than any other album on the Invisible Records label. Track after track of
loose guitar chords, screamed vocals, gated bass, and watered down drums litter
the album. Of course the album is a little dated which tends to amplify all the
subtle mistakes a band makes on it's debut album. The only saving grace this
album has is the final track which sounds nothing like any of the previous
material on the release. Instead of facing yet another cheesy metal head track,
we are pleasantly surprised by a slow ambient lead-in, which slows builds to
restrained percussion. Every second that passes increases the tempo, which
strains to contain itself until the moment when it breaks into clustered
barrage of acoustic and metal cacophony which drives the listener to it's
knees. This track alone makes the whole rest of the album worthwhile to sit
through. It is shame that we are only blessed with a single track of this
driving percussion when it is quite obvious that the Evil Mothers are much more
at home doing it than toying around with the traditional instruments of a rock
band.
