Reviewed by: Darklight There was a big sticker on the front of this album's case that said "Produced By Skrew". This scared me because Skrew has left the cyber edge behind, and has become a very generic metal band. I was afraid that they were going to have Testify do the same thing. To my disappointment, they have. This album sounds absolutely nothing like Testify's debut album "Testify 01". You won't be able to recognize the band now. What this album gives you is extremely straight forward metal music with heavy guitars, slightly distorted vocals, and some samples thrown in here and there. If you listen close enough you might be able to hear some slight electronic sounds placed in the background of the music. But it's guitars, screaming vocals, and drums for the most part. The vocals are the main thing that keep this album in the industrial world. They are distorted and have a German accent. Also, there are a good amount of samples throughout each of the songs. So Testify is still an industrial band. This music is actually pretty good, too. It does rock hard-core. I just hope Testify goes more cyber on their next album.

Reviewed by: Darklight This is very hard, angry, fast paced, aggressive, guitar driven electro metal music. There are electronics and samples found here as well. But these elements aren't very dominant. The guitars and distorted screaming vocals rule here. There really isn't anything new that this band produces, but they do rock. There isn't a slow, bland, drab, or boring song to be found here. They are all energetic, and perfect for the mosh pit. The songs do all sound similar to each other, and are a bit repetitive. But they are still very catchy. If you like harder guitar driven electro metal bands, you will like Testify.
