"This is, quite frankly, one of the best electro-industrial albums I have ever heard. While the guitars have a definite presence in the music, the album is still very EBM oriented. It's the thick beats and haunting synth that are the frontspiece of each track. The guitars are used to a more ambient effect, creating wide washes of staticky dissonance beneath the percussion, rather than running the show a la 16 Volt. While in print this may sound unappealing to fans of power chords, trust me when i say it is majestic in its execution and effect. The music finds no dearth of power or rage, as Mindless Faith has wonderful talent for channeling distortion and noise into cathartic and almost tangible shapes and form. This CD is by no means a simple aural beating of severe proportions. Where Mindless Faith really displays their maturity as musicians is in the dark ambience that makes up the mellower moments on the disc. I would liken it to slow suffocation in a pit of quicksand...dark, cloying, and coarse. And effective. It gives the album a depth that so few other acts seem to be able to obtain. I cannot understand why Mindless Faith have not yet gained the sort of underground following enjoyed by bands like Babyland or Noxioius Emotion. You want this CD. Buy it now."

This band should NOT be overlooked!!!

"Crawling deep below the overhyped, monotonous current music scene is a band with creativity flowing in every vein. It's a shame that bands this good are often overlooked in the face of so-called radio-friendly bands.Mindless Faith could very well be the next Nine Inch Nails if they were given the chance. This album takes you on a ride through the depths of a decaying world. You owe it to yourself to buy this album. To not buy it is to deprive you ears the chance to hear REAL music. Mindless Faith proves that there is still creativity and originality alive in the music world today."

Brilliant! Genous! AWSOME!
