In order to begin to accurately describe the events that occur upon this album,
you need to first clean your mind of all that you know of electronic industrial
music. Remove the dance rhythms, the political angst, the angry lyrics, and
start again at the beginning. Supplant at the foundation the core anti-
government belief held by some many industrial musicians, then in a slow
methodical fashion, rebuilt the industrial movement from the late seventies
totally from scratch, but this time, think analog, flat, monotone. Think
of the Orwellian view of 1984, totally devoid of major technological advances.
This will have give you an firm ground on which to base your musical dissection
upon. Now, in the place of mega-bass and pulsating lights, you have insipid
drum rhythms, and grey programming styles. Crocodile Shop while creating
wonderfully original music has also gone a bit too far over the edge and
have created an album that from the onset is starkly monotone. The music
has it moments, but it never really escapes from the utter lack of emotive
content present in the music.
