 Review by Gary Hill

According to this group's press materials, they are focused on live performance. Given the material here, it's a good bet that their live shows are intense. While this music is electronic dance styled stuff, it seems like the kind of thing that would get quite dramatic and powerful in the live music setting. One of the things I like about this is the fact that (other than on one song for effect), the vocals here are mostly un-processed. There seems to be an annoying movement in this genre toward auto-tuned vocals. I hate auto-tuning to begin with, but it's becoming almost a cliché at this point. So, it's refreshing to hear an act that avoids this. The quick answer is that if you like EDM, you will probably dig this set. Even if you don't normally listen to that style, give this a chance. It is the cream that rises to the top of the bulk of that musical style.
