THE BERZERKER - same - EARACHE
The Berzerker is actually a lone individual, making Earache's newest signing unofficially a one-man band. And you know what that means? The ever-dreaded drum machine. Which in turn explains why Earache wants to call this 'industrial death metal' - a term which will surely make industrial fans cringe for other than the drum machine there is nothing industrial about the Mortician-meets-old Carcass delivery of this Aussie. That is until the last five or so tracks where Mr. Berzerker checks out of Mortician to pay Merzbow a visit. Yup it's noisecore territory all of a sudden. Right little name dropper I am, and fans of all the above-mentioned then have leave now to scrutinize this disc. - Ali "The Metallian"
