Vision is a one man band from Spain that appears to have a lot of Leaether
Strip and :wumpscut: influences. This album delivers extremely angry,
noisy and violent music with a dark haunting edge and distorted growling
vocals. It almost seems like a soundtrack to an ancient war. It's chaotic
madness that doesn't relax for a second. Once the album begins it delivers
insane intensity until it ends. It never gives you a break from its
assault. The music is constructed with various electronic sound effects,
drum programming, eerie keyboard melodies and samples. Nothing is really
structured as it's just very noisy and all over the place. There are
slight rhythms and beats, but nothing that could really work on the
dance floor. This music is very experimental, but still manages to pull
you in. The vocals are extremely distorted and basically just shout
with rage. I was glad to see that there is only one instrumental to
be found here. Nine of the songs do include vocals. However, the singing
doesn't really change from track to track. Actually, the songs in general
all kind of sound the same. They have slight differences to them, but
not enough to really make any stand out. I would have liked more variety
included in them. They all play at the same pace and have the same noisy
sound. The vocals are just placed over the electronic insanity. This
is how it is for every track. It's as if the album is delivering one
long playing song instead of ten separate ones. While there really isn't
anything original to be found here, it's still a very quality release
that will please those who enjoy extremely angry and noisy dark electro
industrial music.
