By Mistress Nancy [Posted July 2, 2015]
Aesthetic Perfection Imperfect Metropolis Street: 05.12 Aesthetic Perfection = Vince Guaraldi + Necessary Response – Electricity Although I am not a fan of hearing live music on a produced album, this release is amazing.

Review: Dismantled – Breed to Death
By OneAmySeven [Posted August 4, 2005]
Dismantled Breed to Death Metropolis Street: 04.25 As soon as I saw there was a cover of Paula Abdul’s “Straight Up,” I couldn’t wait to listen to Breed to Death, the preview to Dismantled’s third album, Standard Issue. I was never a fan of Dismantled (the whole trying-to-sound-like-Frontline Assembly thing turned me off), so I … read more

Lights of Euphoria Gegen Den Strom Metropolis It’s common nowadays that if your album isn’t good enough to stand alone, you should add some remixes from artists that people like. Lights of Euphoria were smart enough to do that for the limited-edition North American release of Gegen Den Strom (Against the River). The 12 … read more
Review: Combichrist – Everybody Hates You
By Ryan Michael Painter [Posted April 17, 2005]
Combichrist Everybody Hates You Metropolis In the last year, Combichrist has released some of the best music to cross my desk in a long time. It’s lighthearted, evil, sexy, danceable and delicious. Fifteen years ago, I felt the same way about Nitzer Ebb; it got in the veins and you were hooked. “This s*it … read more
