"This release by Marc Broude was, as far as I understand, originally released in 7'' vinyl and has been out of print for some time, but recently it has been released digitally. The style of the two tracks on this release is industrial metal. Now, industrial metal - being metal which extensively incorporates electronic elements - could of course be a lot of things, and I must admit that it is not all industrial metal that sits well with me. However, this release is actually pretty interesting, and I particularly like the first track "Psychological Warfare". What I appreciate about the two tracks is that, although quite influenced by electronica, the music still seems to be centered around guitar riffage. "Psychological Warfare" is build up around a simple and groovy riff, which suits the underlying heavy hiphop-like programmed drum beat quite well. I also like the use of atmospheric keyboard effects which are constantly buzzing about in the background. "God Smacker" is also a quite heavy affair, which is based on a kind of sludgy riff in the verse and an equally sludgy and heavy riff, but of a more chugging character though. This track is also full of weird atmospheric effects. The vocals are heavily distorted on both tracks, and - true to the industrial genre - both tracks are characterized by characterized by repetition of the same figures, and, due to the heaviness of the style of music on this release, the repetition has a sort of trancelike effect upon the listener. I think that this is a pretty solid release, and a very interesting one. If you like heavy and dark industrial metal which has sort of the same effect upon the listener as trip hop does, then you ought to check out this release.
