DarkSouljah, Mar 09, 2005

Some might say this album is pointlessly long. But if you listen to both discs from beginning to end, you see variation within the release. CombiChrist covers several genres here, beginning with hard, aggressive electro/ebm, and then slowly combining noise elements by the end of the first disc. The beginning of the second cd starts with rhythmic noise tracks, and ends with long ambient industrial songs.

A good aspect of Everybody Hates You is that not every track has vocals. As seen with Icon of Coil, Andy LaPlegua isnt the best when it comes to writing english lyrics. Thus it is welcomed that some tracks just use sampling, or those hilariously cheesy Windows text readers, in place of vocals.

Overall, this is a solid release in the end, though not really deserving of 5 out of 5. The variation in style reminds me somewhat of Noisexs monster, Ignarrogance, in the fact that it almost acts as a compilation of material.
