Free Music Notes for Sunnypsyop
Free Music Review: Excellent...Please excuse the hostility
Hit: 4 Stars
Seldom do we get something this delightful anymore...we meaning Industrial fans. Please note, the following cheif complaints and me debunking of said complaint
1.) It isn't skinny puppy....Umm..Yeah. We know. Thats why it doesn't say Skinny Puppy on the front. Just because Ohgre is in the band does not mean it should sound like Skinny Puppy. It's it's own animal
2.) Mark Walk is not cEvin Key.... See above
3.) It's too "poppy"....People expect that anything with a Skinny Puppy alumni to have that grating, harsh edge to it. This has a wee bit of that, but it's much more precisely placed. PLEASE, remember that Ohgre and Skinny Puppy are two separate entities. Judge them separately, by their own merits and flaws.
All in all, the album is amazing. The bonus video fer the CD rom is a nice treat, though if ever I see it on MTV I'll die of surprise.
Free Music Review: Who knew that Ogre could do pop so well?

I was totally blown away by ohGr's SunnyPsyOp (and Welt, too)! I am a big fan of industrial music and can respect when one artist can approach it from a more accessible angle. ohGr definitely does that, they churn out many songs that are super-catchy and are still well-structured, the samples are clean and expressive. I tried out some of Pig's albums and they just seem to fall flat in some regards - albeit the great sampling Pig does - and his vocals are just grating and cliché '80s ooh-ahh-scary cheese, ohGr's production is contemporary and professional. They took into account both quality, art, and pop culture when crafting these, in my opinion, and while not pushing any new boundaries with this release, it's still a really enjoyable album.Free Music Review: Don't approach this expecting another Welt
Hit: 4 Stars
At last, the new album by Ohgr. Skinny Puppy fans can rejoice, as this album reminded me, at least, of the direction SP was taking before splitting up/dying out. DOn't get this expecting another Welt. I loved Welt, it reminded me of NIN's pretty hate machine-all pop tracks that could be individually taken in. But Welt this ain't. Sunnypsyop feels more like a concept album, and that's not bad, just different. Listen to it the whole way through a few times without paying too close attention to it, and like Skinny Puppy it will work it's way in your head...Free Music Review: The Ogre and Walk deliver
Hit: 4 Stars
As a long-time loyal Skinny Puppy fan since the 80s, I don't understand all the complaints about Ogre's album. I think it's excellent. In fact, it's far better than the last 2 SP albums (Greater Wrong of the Right and Mythmaker) which were mediocre, at best.
Lots of good beats and catchy choruses and hooks on here: HiLO, maJiK, JaKO, DoG, SunBurn, WaTergaTe. Yeah, it's more pop-y and more dance-y than SP. Great!!
I recommend this for true fans of electronic or industrial music.

Though not on par with the catchy WELT, SunnyPsyOp is an aural masterpiece. Great soundscapes, interesting vocals, and GREAT bass (moreso than on WELT). Great job Ohgr!!
