CARRIER FLUXIn WasteRelease: 2002Label: Black LotusAvantgenre: Melodic Dark Cyber Metal MadnessDuration: 41:54Origin: USAOfficial site: http://www.carrierflux.com/............................................................................................................................................Absolutely awesome!!! This is some of the believe I have mentioned a trademarkbest new extreme melodic metal I have style when listening to an album for theheard so far. What raises the bar here is first time, but damn if this isn't originalthat along with the more melodic death / and good). The clean vocals are some ofblack metal there is distinct industrial the better ones heard in such an extremeand gothic influence throughout the record.The opener "Rebirth" sums up nicely harsh and brutal as it is atmospheric andband (and believe me this is extreme - it'sthe more immediate (and traditional) aspectsof the band and is strangely catchymature).amidst all its twists. "Ghost in the Machine"continues this trend of moving forphonesand could barely keep myself fromI was listening to this at work with headwardwith all guns blazing. Soundwise it head banging along to this madness. Ais close to a mix of Red Harvest (for need barely contained grin danced on my faceof a better comparison) and melodic as the colossal instrumental "Serpent"death/black (in a few places, quite brutal) rolled over me. And the follow-up punch ofmetal with a sprinkling of mid-era Tiamat. the muscular and angry "Above the CrippledEarth" had my jaw on the floor. ThisI know it looks strange in writing, but wait'till you hear this. When the blasts, layers, song needs immediate hearing.

CHORONZONPsychosis Ex MachinaRelease: 2004Label: Foamin' Sodomy RecordsAvantgenre: Noise Orchestration Of Chaos ThrashDuration: 60:10Origin: USoAOfficial site: http://choronzon333.livejournal.com/That's why I love how Mr. Williams hasn'tsacrified any of the aural rawness aesthet-.............................................................................................................................................In 1998, Samoth's Nocturnal Art Recordsreleased something of a milestone recordthat went by without being noticed at allin the underground circles. Choronzon'sMagog Agog, a mostly industrial-fed postblack-thrash-heavyics which are usually linked with oldschoolmetal. His music, as psychedelicand coloured as it is, has real bite, whichmeans that it's got an authentic aggressiveattitude and a futuro-retro punk-headpsychedelic and archaism. I would say that it is right outnightmarish beast, however, probably of these subtle tensions that his musicalsurprised the few groups of people thatactually had the chance to hear its bizarremalice, to the point where they did like meand followed with great care each of itssubsequent musical steps. Well, six yearslater, P. Emerson Williams launched whatI would call one of the most psychoadvancedand noise-demented metal albumboldness is expressing itself with a rarelywitnessed power. It can bring out thecaveman inside you as much as it canopen up your mind to unknown forms ofmusic. One has to mention the multilayeredshamanic vocal techniques that atevery turn can easily overwhelm your attentionspots. The man is screaming,of the 21st century. I really had to whispering, singing, crooning, deep-write about this album in relation to ourgreat electro metal celebration, because ifyou ask me, this is the real thing!throating, gagging, scratching, breathing,feedbacking, morphing, reciting - often allat the same time! Pretty engulfing, to saythe least.First of all, Choronzon isn't simply addinga couple of electronica elements now andthen on top of a galloping rock metalband, nor does he recharge in expensivestudios his compositions with a typicallyover-produced industrial, polished andclinical sound, as most actual so-calledelectro metal bands are doing. On PsychosisEx Machina, Mr. Williams has foundan ensemble sonore which doesn't allowyou anymore to distinguish the noisy,EVP-fuelled and feedback noise overalldirt from the sometimes out-there majestic,sometimes spooky black angular guitarriffs. Despite all these abstract definitionsthat I'm making up here, Choronzonkicks major ass and is always on the edgeof catchiness, but in an extraterrestrialfashion I should add.Among the album, there are three shortersegments of pure dark ambient music,where it is made clear that this man hasbeen working hard with his alien machinesbefore getting to a musical languageas fluent as this one is. I won't settledown for a track-by-track description,since Psychosis Ex Machina is Mr. Williamsclearly most diverse and genrebendingeffort to me. For example, listeningto The Enchanting Dead, with its earcandymystical far west cowboy metalgroove, is quite a surreal experience Imust confess, and it always makes me feellike I'm surrounded by miles and miles ofdesertic sand dunes, smoking miragesand dead-hot snakes. Asymmetrical RedChamber, however, sounds like it hasbeen generated by a furious, out of controlmachine factory whose irresistible penchantfor dirge rythms and horror metallic
