Format: CD

Distributor: DSBP
Rated: *****
23 EXTACY is a mutual project out from the Salt Lake City area consisting of Chris Alvarado and Kevin J. Cazier (LITTLE SAP DUNGEON or his solo effort PERCEPTION CLEANSE PERCEPTION). They play a kind of Hardcore-Electro-Metal with some rather chaotic ingredients as well and they do release here their second full-length CD. The whole music is almost guitar-driven combined with some nice Dark Electro sequences and with some brutal vocal efforts. The song structures are hard-banging with full speed, it awakes here and there some chaotic Punk attitudes. This is surely not the soundtrack to float away in a fairytale, no, it doesn’t take any prisoners. Personaly I like of course the more Electro-driven pieces like "Kill a DJ" or "Rise and Fall" but also this tracks are pretty much in the globally mentioned style. Remarkable – and with a funny hint – is the hardcore cover version of DIVINE’s "I’m so Beatiful", an Italian disco icon from the Eighties who died in the meantime (can anybody remember the original song?). If you feel you need to rinse your brain with some acid you should give this piece a try at first. Released out on Kevin J Cazier’s label Dungeon-Recordings, check also out the entirely DSBP catalogue.
