While I have nothing but the greatest respect for paying tribute to the
deceased, there is something to be said for discretion as well. The Electric
Hellfire Club's third album is a tribute to their fallen comrade in music who
passed away in a car accident in 1995. If this was the way my friends tried to
pay tribute to my rotting corpse, I'm not sure I'd want to have these people as
friends. Instead of taking the queue from Dr Luv's passing and attempting to
better their music, once again they have fallen into the musical rut that every
single album they have released to date has been stuck. Insert a landslide of
satanic samples, cheesy vocals, and even more ridiculous track titles and you
have a virtual photo copy of their last two albums. I haven't the vaguest idea
why anyone would enjoy this music but apparently someone does since they keep
releasing the same album over and over again much like KMFDM. They have found
their schtick and have stuck with it to the bitter end, much to our disfortune.
Pardon me, I have to go and sell my soul to get these people to quit releasing
this rubbish before people start taking them seriously.
Electric Hellfire Club is:
Thomas Thorn - vocals, lyrics, programs, sampling, etc
