AGHAST VIEW
- Carcinopest
Songs: 14 Time: 65:26
The long awaited 2nd full length from
Aghast View has finally been unleashed. After a multitude of obstacles,
Carcinopest was released on the brand new Canadian label Gashed.
Even though this CD was recorded back in 1996, the music still sounds as fresh
and innovative as anything else out there. Carcinopest begins with Pay Off,
a angry EBM piece with growling vocals, dominating rhythms, catastrophic
samples, and rock-hard beats. Fade Away uses the same approach, but adds
in the bonus element of metallic guitar riffs akin to recent KMFDM tracks
and choppy break-beats. The gem of Carcinopset is Torrent Haze; a
roughed up EBM piece splattered with interesting breaks, catchy samples, and
violent beats. Per/Version is another turbulent electro piece in which
Aghast View implements biting break-beats and pounding rhythms. With Down
Race Aghast View take on a more disjointed approach to programming with
fluctuating rhythm speeds and shouted vocals. Truthlike is a less
abrasive track with subtler vocals, lighter sequences and uniform beats.
Lastly, Vaporize is a track that gradually builds itself upon a
foundation of spastic beats, meaty rhythms, and angry vocals. It's easy to hear
the influences that other bands (Front Line Assembly, Swamp Terrorists,
KMFDM, Wumpscut) have had upon Aghast View and with Carcinopest they have
managed to meld all of these separate sounds together into a musical approach
that they can call their own.
