Dark City review (June/July 2002, English translation)

Heavy metal guitar combined with industrial/noise percussions plus incredibly distorted vocals... That's all. Instead of any atmosphere one gets ringing emptiness. The sound is minimalistic and anti-human by its essence. Most closely, this resembles the albums of Belmez - similarly obtrusive drum machine and headache provoking unhuman vocals. The album completely conforms its title - the music contains not a single bit of human nature, it consists only of gloom and darkness and presents a triumph of infernal forces which have nothing in common with the notion of life. Strongly recommended to persons addicted to suicide and listed in databases of psychiatric hospitals.
