Well, I've certainly been hearing a lot about this project. Thanks to the folks at Flaming Fish, now we have more quality guitar-based industrial music to energize us and wack us over the head with heavy riffs and dance-able pulses. There's plenty of influences here, reaching as far as some trance and drum and bass, but there's a keen sense of melody and, when it's merited, aggression. If you're into Circle, Klank, and Argyle Park, get Level . . . you'll find half an album's worth of intensity. Electronic purists will most appreciate the other half.
