NEUROTECH
"Antagonist" (Self-released; 2011)
Reviewed by Jeff Rogers
Cyber metal seems to be a new, emerging type of metal.
Cyber sounds, which include heavy distorted guitars along with electronic
sounds, but more futuristic. Either way it sounds awesome! A lot of Neurotech's
music sounds dense but that isn't the top layer, that's the base. Harmonies and
choruses are added on top and vocals that are scratched along the top so you
have a bunch of layers that balance out to create some dance/metal/industrial
music that is quite infectious.
This is Neurotech's debut disc, they had an EP titled "Transhuman" and they
decided that a full length disc was needed to gather the masses of cyber metal.
You can listen to this disc and note that it sounds like dance music but with
heavy guitars and it has a metal vibe and then you add musical choruses, well,
it's hard to define but not hard to absorb at all. You can head bang all day
long to this disc. At the time of this review, it's currently a free download,
and I highly recommend you do so.
Neurotech are from Ljubljana, Slovenia. Wulf writes all of the lyrics and music.
Neurotech: Wulf - Vox/Guitars/Synths/Drum Prog, Naur - Live Bass, Sophis - Live

Rating Guide:
A classic. This record will kick your ass.
Killer. Not a classic but it will rock your world.
So-so. You've heard better.
Pretty bad. Might make a nice coaster.
Self explanatory. Just the sight of the cover makes you wanna hurl.
