Repercussions

Albenrezension

On Greg Sanders' sophomore effort, the dubstep titan begins exploring the gritty borderlands between his normal territory and industrial music. It's a hugely promising fusion, and if the results are sometimes just a bit conceptually thin, the music is still very enjoyable all the way through. The two genres blend most fruitfully on tracks like "Koncrete," with its grinding guitar pulses, and the sharp but cool "Skeleton Grin." "Loosen My Grip" is great for the first minute or two but doesn't develop enough new material to justify its length, and the same is true of "Mirror Tell" and the title track. However, "Sending Chills" employs a nifty flute loop that contrasts nicely with the track's overall dark, spare ambience.
