Free Music Review: Another brilliant release from Rozz Williams
Hit: 5 Stars

The music here takes on a bit of a 70s rock flavor, even covering Iggy & The Stooges' "Raw Power", yet still often manages to recall the musical structures and bass/guitar/drum/vocal sound of some of the more straightforward Shadow Project material or Only Theatre Of Pain era Christian Death.

Rozz's vocals are more melodic and less fragmented on this release than they are on most of the later Christian Death and Shadow Project material. Another notable difference in his vocal style here is the welcome absence of the dual vocal layers that pretty much became the standard for most of his 90s Christian Death and Shadow Project releases. The lyrics here are also more subdued than Rozz's other projects in keeping with the band's more direct rock delivery.

Overall, this EP is a nice break from the more philosophical and somewhat less accessible material that makes up the majority of Rozz's brilliant catalogue. However, it also contains enough similarities to his other work to keep most fans happy. At under 20 minutes, it's a bit short, but it's also a great CD to put on repeat play...
