'Cyber Grind' was the genre tag I found most often about this album but to be perfectly honest, I was expecting something far more brutal. Whilst the elements are there for what I like in a lot of music - Blast beats, thumping electro bass lines and smatterings of guitars it somehow did'ny blow me away as I wanted it too.

I found it all a little too polished and thought out for my liking. I would have much preferred it to be more haphazard and raw. Whilst it definitely was'nt unlistenable and there are sections I like, I just found it pales in comparison to a band such as Mad Capsule Markets who are similar. 6/10

Mad Capsule Markets:
A HUGE YES I heard Genghis Tron thinking it would alleviate the pain of Mad Caps breaking up and it just didn't do it for me, I have all their albums on my MP3 player and love playing it when walking to Uni and whatnot. 010 and System Conflict (too ****ing complicated the other spelling), well basicaly the last two albums they made, are my favourites. Anyways I want you to review Jan Dukes de Grey - Mice and Rats in the Loft I might even up it if you behave.
