I
WRESTLED
A BEAR
ONCE
- It's
All
Happening
Another
run
scored
for
the
ladies
of extreme
music!
- (and
some
company
for
Arch
Enemy's
Angela
Gossow)
with
the
growling
Krysta
Cameron
and
her
band
of audio
assault
artists
slapping
you
silly
with
a blend
of Death
Metal,
Grindcore
and
some
undefined
experimental
trips
and
electronic/industrial
stabs,
making
this
band
very
far
from
run-of-the-mill.
The
deathly
vocals
also
get
melodic
passages
(sometimes
hinting
at the
likes
of Björk).
Sometimes
the
choice
of inbetweeners
seem
highly
out
of place
and
downright
odd,
but
that
adds
to the
quirkiness
(as
you
may
gather
being
prepared
for
it by
the
chaotic
cut
&
paste
cover
design).
Sure,
the
age-old
caveman
dilemma
of (many)
men
believing
women
can't
rock
as hard
as their
male
counterparts,
often
get
contradicted,
as it
does
here.
While
I am
in a
band
with
a female
vocalist,
this
doesn't
mean
I'm
always
taken
by any
band
with
that
configuration
- as
there
are
sections
here
where
the
vocals
get
a bit
of a
girlie-teddy-bear-growl
like
Flyleaf,
which
isn't
always
my favourite
(and
can
sometimes
sound
a bit
unconvincing).
