Mentallo and the Fixer

Centuries (Metropolis)
by Chris Best

This EP release is very strong, and I’d recommend it to anyone who likes Front 242 and Front Line Assembly rip-off projects. Whoops! Did I say that? Yeah, I did. It’s really hard to go wrong when adhering to a strict form. What’s here are four remixes of “Other World Technology” and two other tracks, “Lightyear” and “Stellar Cascade,” both of which are also very good. My advice on this record is simple, if you’re tired of the retro sound so prevalent in a lot of industrial, don’t get this. If you can’t get enough of the ’80s electro sound, go get this.
