What you've passed on to me Will stay until the end of days Forever Maybe it's a sign of how I will always miss you Don't fear what they say It will come anyway And it will brighten yet another day

Among shadows in the dark, we carve our names These voices will stay, until the end of our days 'Cause we are in this together Undone.

Ada Rook - UGLY DEATH NO REDEMPTION ANGEL CURSE I LOVE YOU

(Electro-Industrial, Noise Pop, Aggrotech)

Ada Rook's latest album is a piece of bubblegum surrounded by acid vats and thorny vines, incredibly catchy electro-industrial tunes that see Rook going harder than ever before. UGLY DEATH NO REDEMPTION ANGEL CURSE I LOVE YOU is every bit as much passion and intensity as anything she's done in the past, but her incorporation of more aggrotech and cyber metal brings a new edge to it all that's complete ear candy.

☆☆☆☆

In both her solo work and as part of Black Dresses, Ada Rook's music toes the line between gummy pop music and harrowing, intense industrial rock better than anyone else out there. It's easily accessible through her catchy hooks and bright, expressive vocals, but she can dip into metal screeches atop distorted, piercing synths and drum pads the second after without a thought, industrial music that takes hold of the power to engage that dance and rock music provides and bringing it into that context. Her latest album UGLY DEATH NO REDEMPTION ANGEL CURSE I LOVE YOU follows in those footsteps, but now mixes in groovy aggrotech and flashy cyber metal that give her sound a whole new identity. Not only is the music more fiery and passionate than ever, but it's also even more danceable and catchy than before, UGLY DEATH...'s four-on-the-floor drums and massive synth walls making for some of the best earworms Rook has ever put out. It's the kind of album that demands your attention with its massive sound, but it has the musical chops to back it up, using loudness to pull your ears towards it, and then letting Rook's impressive songwriting and always impeccable vocal work to prove that UGLY DEATH... is worth coming back to again and again. At just a slim 35 minute runtime, UGLY DEATH...'s boiling-hot surface is one that goes by fast enough to tear all your skin off while being brisk enough to keep the sadistic fun from turning torturous. These songs are loud, speedy, and hard on the ears, but it's done with such a bright energy and intelligent use of those different elements to where all of it only becomes an advantage for Rook. As these songs see her blazing through feelings of self-hatred, internal destruction and emotional fury, it's her production that makes sure the music is able to keep up with her mind, the incredibly distorted and electrifying chorus on TRU U bury her acidic songwriting - "Transparent blood of a ghost / Nobody else will notice," "You shine so brightly / In the frequency that only freaks like me can see - in so much clipping noise that just about all you can feel is just how much emotion she's pouring out into these songs, later pulling the same kind of thing out on XANAFALGUE atop spiky metal guitars and a blood-soaked bassline that gives her voice even more presence within the mix. While it's not always easy to hear her words, the power in her vocals ensures you always know what she's feeling, which is infinitely more important than anything else an album that is this intense and overwhelming. No one can bring the kind of fervor and musical explosivity Ada Rook can, and that alone makes UGLY DEATH... one of the year's standouts. The album's sound may be a niche one - I can't imagine anyone not inclined to Rook's blasting electro-industrial sound to get a whole lot out of UGLY DEATH... - but her take on the sound here is so well done and powerfully delivered that anyone looking for this kind of sound will be more than happy with what she's brought to the table here. You've got gummy brass horns from Sunrise Transparence alongside plucky piano leads on PURGATOR3Y MODULATION MACHINE, keeping the song's midtempo pulse alive and vicious, the cyber metal gloss of GRAVITY WEAPON with its dance percussion and thrashing vocal performance, the two-part VANISH/DOOM where the transition from its glorious aggrotech beginnings to a sensitive, low-key ballad feels unexpectedly fitting and well-earned on the back end of the album, a quick break from all the noise before you're pulled right back into Rook's claws and into the depths of the night UGLY DEATH... brings. When 5H4D0W H34R7Z sees her taking a brighter path, a buoyant dance tune that uses distortion and noise in a much more melodic and warm fashion, it makes for one of the most cathartic ends to any album this year, Rook breaking herself down throughout the rest of the album so that she could get to a point where rebuilding herself from the ground up was the only option, singing in her plain voice " I'm gonna end it all and then I'm gonna make it up / I'm gonna be somebody I can love," one of the best statements on rebirth and self-assuredness she's ever put out. UGLY DEATH... has some of the darkest moments in her entire discography - XANAFALGUE's self-pointed hatred and the pain of losing yourself on TRU U are unforgettable - but it manages to bring those feelings out without bogging the music down, Rook's intensity as a performer keeping the music engaging and fully present all throughout. UGLY DEATH NO REDEMPTION ANGEL CURSE I LOVE YOU throws wider and bigger punches than nearly any other album this year, and its ability to land almost all of them is staggering. What's most impressive is that it never loses its sense of tension and pacing, even as the songs stay loud and demanding, Rook's years of work in this sound coming to fruition as she modifies each of these 11 songs just enough to make distinct peaks and valleys within UGLY DEATH... that all feel rewarding in their own ways. It's got a ton of heart and the urgency to get it all across to you in just 35 minutes, simultaneously delivering some of the most ear-splitting and electrifying songs this year that once again show just how singular a talent Ada Rook is. UGLY DEATH NO REDEMPTION ANGEL CURSE I LOVE YOU is one strange, ferocious little album, and I wouldn't want it any other way.

Today's song is an all-time favorite. An anthem of resistance again a totalitarian government, possibly more prescient today than it was in 1998.

New Release From Goddess Fall: Goddess of Victory

Goddess Fall had this to say about the new release:

“Doing something a bit differently this month, by releasing both a cover and an original song in the same release! The cover is ‘The Collector’ from the GODDESS OF VICTORY: NIKKE game soundtrack, while the original song is a melodeath number that's inspired by the aforementioned game. I figured releasing both of these songs together was only logical, since they're related to the same subject. That said, enjoy the songs!”

Started listening to Master Boot Record and Keygen Church again. I used to a while ago but i rediscovered it recently.

The whole deal behind MBR is that, in concept, its supposed to be "a 486DX-33MHz-64Mb processing avant-garde chiptune" and "100% Synthesized, 100% Dehumanized". Now OBVIOUSLY, this music is made by a person and not an AI. Which means the music ISN'T 100% dehumanized. There are still going to be moments of high energy and euphoria and also moments of calm and somberness. Of course the music isnt going to be 100% emotionless because that would make the music boring to an unbearable extent, so I'm fine with it. But, the music still does follow the concept pretty well. If I fed a really smart AI Metal and Electronic-Chiptunish music I would expect something similar to this.

As for the music itself, it is pretty kickass. It's very video game ost-esque (and thats funny because VIRTUAVERSE.OST is a game soundtrack lol). It sounds like it would be good over a boomer shooter like DUSK or ULTRAKILL (probably more like ULTRAKILL). As for things like mixing, guitar tone, etc. It all sounds great the drums fit into the mix really well, the guitar (I dont know if its a guitar with effects or if it is a synth (if its a synth i need it)) is nice and CHUNKY, and the chiptune elements are in a higher register to stand out in the mix and add some flair. Both go pretty hard but can qlso exhaust my ears a bit. The synth-ish guitars are a little overbearing at times but is cool if you are in the mood for it. The songwriting is solid but can be a little repetitive, a lot of the songs mesh together. Which I guess adds to the "100% Dehumanized" concept. But the only two songs i can name off the top of my head that i can remember the main melody for are FTP and EDIT.COM.

I also mentioned Keygen Church. It's a side project by MBR and it's more of the same but with classical flair. There's apperances from a pipe organ and a piano which gives more variety than MBR has, which makes me to prefer it a little bit more.

The bandcamp pages also have codes and cyphers to crack which leads to extra songs made for the album. A cool concept, but can make people feel like they are missing out if no one posts access to the songs.

Overall, I think MBR is a pretty cool project and is very talented and deserves support. A lot of their albums can be purchased om Bandcamp for like a dollar each and you can opt to pay more. They obviously also have streaming pages as well on all the main platforms too if thats more of your thing.
