Rhythmically, very energetic and engaging. The album culminates extreme metal drumming and frequent double bass with almost danceable rhythms in between. The patterns are djent style focusing on polyrhythmic patterns and pure aggression. Almost every song has a clean-sung chorus that gives it some identity beyond the constant pummeling. The choruses aren’t catchy, but more atmospheric, using the clean vocals as a sustained melody rather than a hook.
Worst part of this album is the monotonous guitar. Again, very djent in nature, hitting a lot of rhythmic 0’s and featuring no memorable riffs. However, the energy and fantastic drumming help to cover this weakness.
The album is dark and mechanic, but in a fun way, and is quite consistent all the way through, unfortunately ending on the most boring track; the near 10 minute “A Therapy for Pain.”

뜻밖의 발견.
피어 팩토리. 인더스트리얼 메탈의 베테랑이다. 나에겐 이들의 명반이라곤 *Demanufacture*뿐이었는데 본작 *Obsolete*의 발견은 정말이지 뜻밖이었다. 특이한 점이라면 피어 팩토리가 이 무렵부터 헤비한 사운드를 조금씩 절제하면서 말랑하고 멜로딕한 사운드를 시도하기 시작했... Read More

미국의 인더스트리얼메탈을 대표하는 밴드중하나입니다.
본인은 이 밴드를 아마도 초 5때 처음 접했습니다. 어릴때 상당히 좋아했던 게임 레인보우식스 락다운 OST에 이분들이 참여하셨는데 Contagion 이라는 곡을 리메이크한 Lockdown 이라는 곡을 듣고 완전히 반해버... Read More
