After their latest successful album, "Prescription:Medicide", the Dutch electro heads Grendel enter the scene with a new EP.
Based on socio-political, critical lyrics, Grendel are offering us new songs, two remixes plus a new version of their hit "Zombienation".
The door opens and "Soilbleed (v.3)" welcomes us, a highly pulsating track with remarkable samples that sounds like if Leather Strip, Funker Vogt and Hocico swang and shared a cooking spoon.
In combination with VLRK'S distorted power vocs and the easy-to-follow chorus this is surely a candidate for long nights on the dark dancefloors. Sure, it's not really something highly original, but it's a well written and put into practice piece of work.
A very similar fragrance is spread by the next track, "Interrogation Leash" whilst the new version of "Zombienation" showcases an interaction between some minimalistic, nearly Kraftwerk-like beats plus a spooky voice and the trademarks mentioned in the first two tracks. In addition, it has kinda repetitive, infectious synth spot line.
"Aspiration Feed" is going hand in hand with the first two rockets. A good song itself, but it could differ a bit more with regard to the previous ones.
Germany's Agonoize and France's Obszön Geschöpf bring in their Suicide Commando influenced industrial flavor and add some nice crashing edges into it. Specially Obszön Geschöpf managed to give "Soilbleed" another face.
"Dream II", featuring Ordo Roasarius Equilibrio, is a calm, acoustic piece that you wouldn't expect on a Grendel record. A surprising end of an appetizing EP.
