Even though front-freaks of this Russian project, Slava Busygin and Tat'yana Borisova, portrait themselves with the help of Sergey Kovalev during a successful armed robbery as reptile-like punksters, born after a drunken lay or maybe a gangbang between Kiss and some sexy crossbreed of a woman and a lizard - I hope any fan of David Icke isn't reading this review or I'll hold myself responsible for feeding paranoias about Reptilians which want to kill all these annoying lowermost descendants of stupid monkeys! - and the title they've chosen for their new album, there's nothing really so apodictic which could define a radical stylistical revolution. They just enhanced their electro-metal crossover by adding elements from rock'n'roll collective imagination such as guitar riffs, use of voice or just references within lyrics, which are able to evoke that set of values or cliches, whereas in their boiling soup you'll easily recognize techno-punk, vintage techno or EBM recipes from Prodigy or KMFDM cookbooks, just to mention the most immediate analogies. It doesn't mean their sound is not nice and somewhat seducing, as there're many tracks such as "Collider", "F.S.C.K.", "My Wild Imagination" and even the final epic ballad "The Whole World Is Mine" whose contagious creative energy could persuade many listener (I could include myself) to attend some of their explosive liveshows with tickets at reasonable prices.
