Review: Manufactura - And The World Succumbs To Vermin (Crunch Pod)

Artist: MANUFACTURA

Album: AND THE WORLD SUCCUMBS TO VERMIN
Label: CRUNCH POD
 

This release marks the 10th and final studio album of US Based master of disaster Karlos M and what a journey is has been. This album sports a wall of really dark ambient and intricate sounds, exactly what I would expect of one of the industrial scenes legends. Every single album from this guy has been a total masterpiece, whilst having a varied core sound from blistering Rhythm & Noize to Dark Ambient never fails to amaze me with every release.

My favourite tracks are "their worthless love has poisoned our hearts and "in this time of plague and pestileance".

9/10

Review: Maschinenkrieger KR52 - Stroke Unit (Hands Productions)

Artist: MASCHINENKRIEGER KR52

Album: STROKE UNIT

Label: HANDS PRODUCTIONS

 

Maschninekreiger KR52 is back, less Disraptor this time, This release is the first one solo and he totally delivered with this crushing and punishing release of chaos and relentless power noise assaults. 

The distorted elements of this release and the sledge hammer beats are enough to whip up any crowd at the clubs or events into a frenzy, take a listen and you will most definitely agree. 

Tracks like Theme 2 and Halo are naturally my cup of tea.

Amazing release!

Review: In Tenebris - Abyss (Crunch Pod)

Artist: IN TENEBRIS
Album: ABYSS
Label: CRUNCH POD
 

In Tenebris is a dark ambient side project of Sebastian Sunkler of the Stahlschlag fame. This is his debut for this project on Crunch Pod. This album just shows how versatile Sebastian is as a producer and how talented he is, 

The sounds on this album range from drones to subtle soundscapes and heavily layered textures and atmospheres all the great stuff. 

Favourite track for me is "Mankind" 

Great debut!

Review: Dirty K -The Rite Of The Enraged (Infern0)

Artist: DIRTY K

Album: THE RITE OF THE ENRAGED
Label: INFERN0
 

The Rite Of The Enraged is the 6th album from the UK based project Dirty K. This Release is a stunning 14 track Rhythmic noise assault. what gets me with this project is Dirty K never strays from his core sound and sends it heavier and more bone crushing with every release, with dancefloor smashers like Mentally Clouded and Pure Pandemonium This release truly explains why Dirty K is at the forefront of Rhythmic noise genre.  Every time I see a new Dirty K release I get excited because I know it will be a pure violent and savage release. 

Absolutely violent but amazing release!
