Free Music Notes for Tactical Neural Implant

Free Music Review: necessary to understand industrial-EBM music
Hit: 5 Stars

Tactical Neural Implant is necessary to understand the so-called EBM-industrial branch of music; After the quite good and promising 'Caustic Grip', in 1992 came one of the most important electronic cds of all times, in my opinion. If you know FLA, then you understand what are their strong points: excellent electronic basslines, distorted and deep voice, samples everywhere helping to conform a barrier of sound very muscular and dense. 'Tactical Neural Implant' is maybe, together with their penultimate effort 'Implode', the most ellegant example of FLA music. Here everything was more polished and accurate than in previous albums; the agressiveness is not absent, but the dirty sound of 'Caustic Grip' here disappears a bit. The choruses are catchier than ever, following the collection of impressive choruses begun in 'Caustic Grip'. No song here is bad or mediocre.
My review of the songs:
Final Impact (7/10): a strong beginning, with a monotonous voice but incredible bassline, somewhat anticipating later songs like 'Neologic Spasm'.

The Blade (8/10): a more minimalistic song, repetitive, with hip-hop beats and guitars, extremely robotically distorted voice, one of the favourite of the fans which I find much too repetitive but good.

Mindphaser (9/10): layers and layers of samples, impressive chorus, agressive voice, everything sounds more melodic here. One of the FLA highlights ever.

Remorse (10/10): this is one of the most melodic FLA songs ever. The voice is distorted but not in an agressive way, the chorus is very catchy and addictive; the song is not a prodigy of sound, but a prodigy of melody.

Bio-Mechanic (10/10): I love this one. Slower than the rest, addictive chorus with robotical voice, a lot of samples, less catchy perhaps at first listening. The live version in 'Live Wired' is amazing.

Outcast (8/10): again more techno influence, something like hip-hop rhythms, agressive voice, quotes of Skinny Puppy's 'Worlock', guitars, good chorus. A good song which seems even mediocre compared with the rest.

Gun (9/10): after an impressive intro which comes to an electronic climax, here comes the only song whose chorus is not cacthy but a very good song anyway. FLA at its most danceable.

Lifeline (9/10): As in Caustic Grip's 'Threshold', Leeb sings almost with his natural voice a ballad (well, a FLA-style, at least). FLA reminding us of Depeche Mode? well, this comes closer, and it's a perefct way to end an almost perfect album.

If you want to listen to Leeb and Fulber at their best, listen to this. TNI is not as raw as 'Caustic Grip', not as hard and metal as 'Millenium', not as overloaded with samples as 'Hard Wired', and it's the best FLA album only comparable, in my preference, with 'Implode'.
