Porn : "the Darkest of Human Desires act 3"

German band does an excellent job recreating the industrial strength brand of rock that came out in the 90s. The vocals remind me a little of Orgy. Not unlike Strvngers who rules last year, these guys are more accessible, where Strvngers had more of an edge in their attitude and the sleaze that dripped from their songs, while ironically for this band to be so named I do not get the same vibe from them. "Evil six evil" might be more polished when it comes to the song writing though less aggressive. The smooth sheen that made the previous song flow is not coating the more stomping "Here For Love". There are some melodic layers to this one, and the more I listen to it the more it clicks with me.

They dip into a dark shade of rock on "Tonight Forever Bound" which is technically goth, but mainstream enough in it's execution that it reminds me more of a band like Cold. "Remorse For What " is like an extension of the previous song it works off the same melodic theme , but in more of an instrumental context with the samples of serial killers where the vocals would be. Then on "My Rotten Realm"  the pace picks up, though not in the Ministry sense , but more upbeat than where they have been so far. "Eternally In Me" has more of a Fields of the Nephilim feel to it which I am obviously going to be a fan of. The vocal hook to the chorus on this one is greatly improved. They remain pretty melodic for the brooding "Radiance of All That Shines". This song could have come off the "Queen of the Damned Soundtrack".

They get back into the more Fields of the Nephilim territory on "Abstinent Killer". It had more of a nu-metal lurking quality to it. The vocals are well produced , but the guitars could have been brought up in the mix. "the Last of a Million" works off all the elements that have already been presented earlier in the album. It's dark while having that gothic 90s pulse and more gothic rock than industrial. I'll give this album an 8.5 its not the most original thing I have heard but I  like the bands whose influence they are wearing on their sleeves . Comes out Feb 22nd.
