This is the 1st thing I ever heard from this Swedish
band. An EP that manages to flit between thuggish, sweaty
punk and minimal industrial rock.
“No Rules” starts things off - a distorted, Stooge type
riff that bowls along with Punk/Motorhead speed
and attitude.
“Slow Death” comes next - all slow and menacing sparse
guitars, crooning vocals and industrial drums and menacing
drones, loops and noises to accompany lyrics about
someone dying from 90% body burns - very much like
Suicides “Frankie Teardrops”
“Ensam I Natt” is a 2 minute punk song followed by
“Death Threats” - drum/bass loops with muffled
guitar and vocals with what sounds like drills, phones
and a typewriter all being used in the background.
It all ends with a live version of “Slow Death” - 15 minutes
of drone and misery helped by Genesis P-Oridge on
violin, the synth sounds are much more to the front
and there is a slow motion wah wah solo that sounds
like there are only 3 notes played.
I played this to death and they never got this weird again.
