Review by neocactar Oct 03, 2005 (edited over 4 years ago)

referencing We Are The Lazer Viking, CD, ace 023

A stunning 8 minutes of noise. Heard the first track alone, and had to hear how an album starting out as such could possibly sound. Full of screaming vocals, guitars and tinny electronic melodies, I don't imagine it gets more unique than this, but then, this is my first foray into what ever genre of music this might fit into (Hardcore it says... Hardcore doesn't even begin to describe this release).

Deserves a 5/5 for the first track, 'I Am The Lazer Viking' but 'The Revolutionary Politics Of Dance' has a certain attraction, something of a full fledged song despite the 1:13 running time, and 'Wrgggggggrkyyyyyyyyy!!!' is an interesting counterpoint to all the banging, almost out of place, but not, really.
