This compilation is a limited edition free insert that came with Music From The
Empty Quarter, Issue 10. All of the bands present are on Hyperium/Hypnobeat
Records out of Germany. The selection of music is very heavy on the gothic side
with only a few industrial acts of which to speak. All of the gothic acts are
from the new school and shy away from the heavy brooding vocals shrouded by
angstful guitars instead choosing to rely heavily upon electronic programming
and soulful wailing to achieve the same affect. The industrial acts vary from
performance art bands to more dance floor style music. Nothing single track
jumps out as anything special but the real strength of the compilation is it's
sheer diversity. Not one of the umpteen odds bands present ends up traversing
the same musical path as anther band. Each band acts as an enticement and an
open doorway into each artists respective musical worlds. Allowing the audience
to pick and choose what suits them best and vanish from the minds eye into the
musical into the musical realms they desire.
