THE NARROW / PESTROY - Split
Two of Gauteng (and the country's) biggest Nu-Metal / Rapcore influenced
bands clubbed together on this twin disc with an altered twist of a collaborative,
yet separate effort of separate albums containing extra tracks, remixes
and videos. It's a very cool package, especially since fans of the one
is usually also fans of the other.
The Narrow includes unreleased and remixed numbers plus a cover
version of a-ha's 007 theme song The Living Daylights. You
also get a performance video clip of Lonely Lonely, simple but
effective.
The Pestroy disc is predominantly remixes by the likes of vocalist
Tripwire, Hubmodule, and Theo Crous (Nude Girls / kobus!),
not to forget the rare acoustic moment as recorded on UCT Radio. Pestroy's
multi-media additions include video clips like the in-studio shoot of
the song 2 min. H8, short bits on miking up the drums, bits of
vocal recording, a picture gallery as well as web links for both Pestroy
and The Narrow.
Metal is alive and well in South Africa, even if the SAMA's don't like
to acknowledge it.
