Steve from Aggressive Deprivation reviews Angelspit’s Cult Of Fake.
“Overall, Cult of Fake is a brilliant album that is full of classic EBM/Industrial sounds and styles. It is an album that threatens to drag you into the past and beat you repeatedly until you enjoy it.”
The sounds. The drive. The power. All of these elements and more transport me back to the late ’90s. It was a time of grinding Industrial music that was both threatening and arousing. Bands such as Frontline Assembly and Wumpscut pushed the boundaries of dancefloor taste and style. It was a time of great possibilities. And now, in the 21st century, these possibilities seem to be returning with bands like Angelspit, and their latest offering on the dark-electro altar Cult of Fake. The songs on this album are exactly the sort of music the scene has needed for some time. Songs such as ‘New Devil’ and ‘Out For Blood’ move forward with an aggression that is mabsoot making, dancefloor taking and soul consuming. It is a bloody and delicious merger of sound and power that shall become an instant club classic for decades to come. Overall, Cult of Fake is a brilliant album that is full of classic EBM/Industrial sounds and styles. It is an album that threatens to drag you into the past and beat you repeatedly until you enjoy it.
