Punish Yourself vs. Sonic Area

about

Remember about the old 'united we stand, divided we fall' slogan? punish yourself ('cult movie', 'pink panther party'à)and sonic area ('insensΘ', 'explore') probably had this in mind when they decided to join forces on a common record. 'phenomedia' is not a classic split-album, or a collection of mutual remixes, but a full fusion of both musical universes - resulting in completely exclusive tracks, going far ahead of anything you would expect. influenced by hint, download, clint mansell, foetus, coil or the downward spiral, but mostly by the hypnotic power of mass media, arco (sonic area's mastermind) and vx 'cheerleader' (py singer and programmer) tried to break all stylistic boundaries and restrictions, in a merciless attempt to decipher the 'real world' or at least give some aural image of his morbid complexity. dense, nervous, sometimes hard to describe, 'phenomedia' mixes cinematic orchestral atmospheres, dirty hip-hop, tribal industrial techno-punk, brutal wall of sounds, hard-glitch breaks and lush ambient soundscapes û and if you think it's too much, you're probably right ! this is a shamelessly noisy freaks parade announcing the 'nightmare before apocalypse' : acid bass lines, explicit tv sampling, screaming saxophones, broken drum machines collapsing into moody organic percussions, melancholic piano arpeggios and cello, distorted blues guitar, suicide lullabies, whispers, incantations, rantsà this is hard cut-up music for chaos lovers, topped with broken
