Chemlab songs movie#
"Pink" is an experimental song that has music like a horror movie buildup, with a somewhat crazy/depressed woman rambling throughout.Ĭohesiveness - 5 - Industrial tracks can sound very different from one another, and it is evidenced in this album.Īlbum Art - 10 - A manga-style paramilitary man pointing a gun in your face fits very well with "Exile on Mainline." Best album art ever. "Vera Blue" is a calm 80's sounding track that is probably the only track dependent on a consistent bass line instead of a drum machine. The singing is not great in those tracks and very flat, but some of them have rhythm.
Chemlab songs full#
Other than the three tracks above, the rest of the album is full of mostly bland tracks. The Chemlab singer really gets into this track.
"Latex" has a lot of loopy sounds and is a little faster-paced than the previous track. Highlighted by some female vocals, and the electronic-laced vocals of the Chemlab singer, we have a high energy beat throughout. Other highlights of the record include two dancy, fast-paced songs in "Electric Molecular" and "Latex." "Electric Molecular" sounds electric to begin with, and has talk about circuitry and other related topics in the lyrics. The repeated drifts of "I am nothing / you are nothing / we are nothing / nothing at all" really blend well with the somewhat defeated mood of this outro part. The second half of the song seems like an outro, very fitting with the incessant nihilism that the lyrics have set upon it. The first half of the song combines acerbic lyrics with loopy synth throughout. If not for the iconoclastic name, this song is lyrically brilliant. "Jesus Christ Porno Star" is the main highlight of the record. Through the album, you hear a lot of loops and sounds you would hear in Stabbing Westward songs, for example. While this track is not particularly impressive, it shows Chemlab samples often enough and is fairly abrasive. The song then goes into a loopy beat that goes on for 4 minutes or so. Then a gruff man (a commando of some sorts) yelling at someone he just captured. More synths and less on guitar/drums/bass persay.Įast Side Militia is an interesting record that sets the tone with the opening track "Exile on Mainline." There's a sample of a movie where you hear a lot of rapid and small arms gunfire, breaking glass, and explosions. Chemlab is not an industrial metal act, like Nine Inch Nails or Marilyn Manson, but real industrial stuff, with some dancy electronic numbers. In any case, our band, Chemlab, has been deemed so, and if not, an industrial act. And I sure as hell have no idea what "coldwave" really is. I'm not sure what the hell defines a band or artist as a particular musical genre. Review Summary: Pure industrial/coldwave record that hits several high notes well-worth listening to.
