Faith
is the solo electro-industrial project of Christian Ore. While
he doesn’t really do anything new with the songs delivered on this promo
EP; he does manage to put together some decent dark aggressive distorted
angry EBM that is sure to please fans of bands like Velvet
Acid Christand :wumpscut:.
Basically what you get here are
fast paced and energetic pure electro tracks that feature frantic programming,
slamming drum beats and extremely distorted growling vocals. Since this
is a self produced demo; the sound quality is a bit noisy, scratchy
and muffled. This does take away from the full potential of the music
a bit, but you can still hear what Christian has to offer with this
project.
While the songs delivered on this
CD are really nothing that different in terms of dark electro-industrial
music, they’re still good. There are four original songs and three remixes
to be found here. Of course one of the tracks, “Zero Signal”,
is a rather mellow instrumental. It’s not too bad, but it would have
worked better as an opening or ending track.
It’s quite obvious that Christian
wanted to include as much variety on this EP as he could by including
songs with vocals, an instrumental and remixes. So I am sure a full-length
album by Faith would be quite good.
I feel that Christian does show
enough quality song creating abilities on this EP to get Faith signed
to a label. But once Faith is signed; Christian should polish his sound
more and tone down on the distortion. Because it’s proven here that
he has the capabilities and ideas to make good music, but he needs to
take his skills to the next level. I do look forward to a full-length
Faith CD in the near future.
