Cosmic Black Metal from Sweden? Well that's what the bio said and it grabbed my attention.
There are few bands who can blend Black metal, Industrial metal and Electronica and create a finished product.
This CD comprises of three previously released Transmission EPs, titled Transmission I, II, and III, now released digitally as a remixed and remastered compilation album.
Well I'm pretty much blown away by this, first couple of songs certainly blend electronics with Black Metal, but for me 'Call From The Void' just levels up. Great synth sounds, full on drum patterns, screaming deathly vocals, wall of pure guitar noise, yes this is the stuff! and then towards the end it goes all weird with synths and samples, perfect ending!
This never ending aural assault continues, lifted on occasion with some simple yet effective synths such as on 'E.T.A.I.'
'Zero One' creates that rarest of paradox', a danceable, techno black metal onslaught, which we return to on the last song 'Ekpyrotic Gateways', fucking amazing!
Rating 10/10
