Free Music Notes for Mythmaker
Free Music Review: Pure sell-out trash!
Hit: 1 Stars
Like others on here claim to be, I am a hardcore SP fan (or WAS) the majority of my life. VivisectVI is my favorite album with Too Dark Park and RABIES closely behind. I own all the singles, rarities, unreleased videos, etc. and I also pretty much owe my obsession with Italian Horror films to Skinny Puppy. Obviously, I know my "Puppy" and know this ain't it! SP was so awesome and creative back in the 80's because of their deep, innovative style. Each new release would prove to be better than the last and the music was addictive and moody. Not anymore. Dwayne died, OhGr had too many drug problems that were actually draining his creativity and cEvin was too busy trippin' making all those "Download" and solo albums to care about old "Puppy" anymore. This was obviously made to cash-in on the Skinny Puppy name. Apparently, "Download" and "oGhr" albums aren't paying the bills! EVERY TRACK is a wannabe Emo/goth/Hot Topic track that is designed to appeal to 15 year olds. The intelligence is gone, the horror themes are gone, the GOOD vocal distortion gone and most importantly, that 'nostalgic/moody" feeling SP music can create. TGWOTR was bad enough, with like 2 "ok" tracks, but this just sucks. It sounds like a bunch of "oGhr" or "cEvin Key" solo project b-sides. A higher production? Sure. The same talent that made SP the best electronic trio EVER, No. And it never will be again. Old fans hoping for that old SP sound should have given up a long time ago. I did.
Mythmaker Poster
The planet's leading industrial gurus are back with Mythmaker - their most ambitious release to date! As torchbearers of the early industrial scene, the revered Skinny Puppy have had a profound effect on modern music. While their incredible influence on the past and present is undeniable, their greatest days are straight ahead. Mythmaker - as dark, beautiful, twisted and angry as always - takes the listener on a rollercoaster ride through their industrial/techno/prog world and delivers one of the most riveting listening experiences of the year. This is the definitive statement of the definitive Industrial ensemble. Look for the Skinny Puppy song politikiL to be featured on Jackass - The Video Game out March 2007!Some are calling Mythmaker Skinny Puppy's most ambitious--and accessible--album ever. That may be sheer hyperbole but it is safe to say that Mythmaker may be the strongest SP disc in some time. Many of the songs prove infectious--particularly the opening "Magnifishit," the atmospheric "Haze" and even the stomping "Pedafly." The group gets darker and more experimental with "Politikil," pauses for something different ("Ambiantz") and closes with the ultrafast "Ugli." For the most part, the record succeeds, but there are a few bum notes: "Lestiduz" serves a noodly bridge between two better, more focused tunes; "Jaher" is a mellow drifter that will probably polarize some listeners. However there's nothing that will prevent fans--both new and old alike--from growing the continuously evolving myth surrounding Skinny Puppy. --Jedd Beaudoin
