Great album, following the russian psy tradition of bringing very dark twisting leads with heavy repetitive machine gun basslines that put you rigth there, in the mind of young fellows growing up in communist russia.

 

The album starts really hard, your speakers are barely supporting the bassline, but this is no full on, this is dark psytrance at its best, lots of twisting screaming sounds that fit perfectly with the purpose of the subgenre.

 

You have the crazy guitar, very metal-esque and it integrates very well with the madness of the background vocals and the overwhelming leads. These guys really know how to melt multiple layers of sharp squeaking samples and furious basslines.

 

And then the madness gets tamed by the sound of the traditional polka sounds that put the second part of the album in another level. Its like going thru the night just to see the first rays of the morning. The melodies that impose the rythm arent cheesy at all, its just the perfect balance between a heavy level of insanity and the memories of the old grandmother house.

 

Of course its not all about this native sounds in the second part, but definatelly tells you that Parasense is very aware of their roots and origin trying to make something original with song #6. And to beautifully resolve the melody in #8.

 

Im very attracted by this dark psy lately and I just cant get enough of this album.

ah yes pretty cool album, actually one of my top 03 picks, Love to Hate is a VERY nice and original track, blending in some rock music, but not too much, just what's needed. And with Noodle Doodle we can hear Parasence doing... morning trance! Although I prefer their dark stuff. Alas this album doesn't have much value for me 2 years later (writing this in 2005) and in the meantime other dark trance artists like Ocelot showed up even more originality and mean basslines. 8/10

Vesna - I think the author of this song (an Ukrain group "Vopli Vidopliasova") should listed this pure dark and deep remix.

Noodle Doodle (Coockoo Song) - also greate!

 

Sour Milk - wrote just nice review, what could I say more.

 

8.5/10
