Omega
Reality E.P.
Reviewed by Roadrunner
If Steve Holland's last labor of love, Mercy's Virginity left you a little down - despite its message of love, well he's been at his keys again. This time more techno than goth. Recorded at roughly an average of "150 r.p.m.", mostly this'll get the club moving at breakneck speed where such body jerkings cause certain whiplash. The last song works well for the same reasons a similar rhythm worked so well for Genesis's song "Mama". This alone is worth the price of the 5 song E.P. Deep bass, cool cyber sounds, "hardcore reality".
