Implant
creates a fairly original sound. They can't really be compared to any
other band. Each of the songs found on this album sound a lot different.
Song one "Intro" is a basic electronic instrumental. Song
two "Chillout" is a very slow moving and dreary track with
basic programming and whispered accented vocals. Song three "Fun"
is rather energetic with sci-fi techno style electronic sounds and slightly
growling vocals. Song four "Rage" continues the fast paced
techno sound with drum and bass mixed with upbeat electronics and rough
singing. Song five "Look-Alike" is noisy and techno based
with a lot of samples and clean high pitched singing. It almost comes
off as a synth-pop track. Song six "High" is melodic and sounds
a lot like Love And Rockets. Song seven "Sect" is noisy and
rather aggressive with static sounds mixed with heavy drum beats and
fast paced electronics. The singing is kind of slow and basically just
talks over the experimental rhythms and beats. Song eight "Love"
is very drum heavy with electronic sound effects mixed with harmonic
synth melodies and clean singing. This is a darker track than most that
has a slight goth edge to it. Song nine "Spit" is an aggressive
song with heavy drum beats and slithering electronic sequences. The
vocals are distorted and sing with anger. This album definitely has
a lot of variety on it. The only problem is that the overall sound of
the music seems a bit dated. It lacks a lot of electronic layering,
synth harmonies and samples. Overall, this is a good album with a unique
sound. However, don't expect it to grab you right away. It will probably
take a few listens before it grows on you.
