A side project that I am in (maggotapplewonderland) received the following review of our cd "Six Hits of Sunshine and the Bruises to Show."
Its always nice to see a theremin gettin' a little love. For this project, the theremin is severly processed via patches I built in Native Instruments Guitar Rig. I laughed that they identified it at all.
"Here's an album that lives up to its title. Managing to be both
sharply beautiful and darkly sinister, this collage of ambient,
experimental metal is challenging in all the right ways. The
incorporation of electronic sounds into a surreal semi-metal
environment is nothing new, but these guys take it a step further,
slipping in theremin vibes and strange programming and sampling
elements that peel the skin back even further. Considering that there
are six musicians involved in the playing, it's slightly surprising to
hear a resulting sound that ethereal but complete, full but not too
busy. You could call this ambient noise, but I'm not sure if that's
giving it enough credit. This is an album you can listen to with
headphones on and catch a ton of subtleties that you may have missed
through your standard sound system. Fans of Mr. Bungle, John Zorn, and
abstract experimental music will have no trouble diving headfirst into this one." CD Baby 02/19/07
