:Music Review: Dismantled – Whole Wide World

Dismantled – Whole Wide World
Release Date: September 11, 2012
Label: Metropolis Records
Website: dismantled.org

Review by: Grant V. Ziegler

  In June 2011, Dismantled released War Inside Me, which could be considered the perfect soundtrack to the apocalypse. So how can front-man Gary Zon follow up such a destructive masterpiece and not have it sound like a disappointment? By releasing an EP that puts the EP in EPic, that’s how. (more…)

:Concert Review: Dismantled and Hardwire

Dismantled and Hardwire
April 13, 2012
Tucson, AZ @ The Rock

Review by: George Fling

It was Friday April 13th. The Mastermind, J. Ward and myself were skimming through the desert in the sufficient confines of COMA-Mobile. Reminiscent of a million bad miles we had logged before, but this time was different. This time we had a radio, this time we had a mission. The destination was Tucson, a venue called The Rock. Jon Siren had told J it was near the market with the tasty vegan energy bars, but I was unsure how to feed that to the GPS. Nevertheless, we were able to avoid the Coachella traffic and arrive early for a night of industrial mayhem. It was enough to make my boy pussy wet. (more…)

Alright ladies and gents! On this mix I have about 5 tracks that are considered new! Everything after that is gonna be old tracks! So with this mix we went a little bit back into the abyss that is my collection and dug through and find some OLD tunes that I felt needed to be brought back to the present. So get your self ready to have your face blasted off with some of the best beats in the scene.  Digital Glitch is here with Episode 35 and it is ready to make some noise and some major trouble for your listening pleasure. ARE YOU READY!?!

:CD Review: Stiff Valentine – America Inbreeding

Stiff Valentine – America Inbreeding
Label: WTII Records
Release date: February 14, 2012
Website: http://secondbestcanadianbandever.com

Review by: Gabe Wilkinson

Last year Chris DeMarcus and Kerry Alexis Peterson along with Galen Whalin and Craig Jensen dropped their machine rock debut on WTII records with America Bleeding. A heavy record with more akin to the metal side of the industrial coin than the electronic side, but a killer slab of coldwave none the less and a perfect compliment to anyone’s music collection.

DIGITAL GLITCH EPISODE 18!
THEME BASED SET: DEATH, DYING AND DEAD!

Hey there music freaks! Sorry about the day late upload. SO GET IT NOW!

The time is now and Digital Glitch Episode 18 is about to blow out your speakers! This set was built on a theme behind it as well, and its theme was death. Any tracks having to do with death, die and dying. So it’s a very grim set especially with it being only one more week from Halloween! But do not think for a moment that this mix of music will not have you moving your ass! I have some brand new tracks from Acylum, Skinny Puppy, Binary Park and Traumatize to tantalize your taste buds as well. So let us all get our drinks ready and move all the stuff off the shelves on the wall, because the bass will not be responsible for anything it breaks! LET’S DO THIS! The dead will arise to the nasty bass beats of aggression!

:CD Review: Dismantled – The War Inside Me

Dismantled – The War Inside Me
Release Date: June 14, 2011
Label: Metropolis Records
Website: http://www.facebook.com/dismantled

Review by: Jeremy Davey

Dismantled (Gary Zon) is back and ready to obliterate with what is probably his most cohesive album to date, The War Inside Me.  Not only is it Dismantled’s most cohesive release, it is also Gary’s best work since 2004′s Post Nuclear.  There is a certain something, a definite flow, on this album that has been missing from other Dismantled releases.  While there is plenty of variety on The War Inside Me, the songs fit together like a puzzle made of pissed off, jagged sound.  I’ve long been a fan of Dismantled, but it seems like every album has a song that sticks out like a sore thumb.  While these are still good songs, they disrupt the flow of the album.  Maybe (probably) it’s just me.  Lyrically, this is not an album that will make you feel giddy with overwhelming joy unless you disdain most aspects of modern society and have nearly lost all faith in humanity.  (more…)

This episode might be a bit confusing. Christina, Tiffany and j. all make an appearance at some point. Christina and j. had some time to kill after the interview with Filter so they decided to record. It had been a long day so it got a bit silly but that is not too strange for this show now is it?

:Concert Review: APBL2010 – U.S. Tour

Apoptygma Berzerk, Dismantled, Ikonoklast & The Anix
March 23rd, 2010
Club Mardi Gras – Scottsdale, AZ

Review by Aaron Richardson

Apoptygma Berzerk, Dismantled, Ikonoklast & The AnixWhen the COMA team asked me to review the Apoptygma Berzerk show I was a little apprehensive; industrial music (also bands I’d never heard of) on a Wednesday night in a tiny bar venue filled with not-always-so-loveable drunkards lost in arrhythmic arm waving didn’t sound like my usual cup o’ tea. The venue was great, a dark corner just off the 101 with a nice bar and Guns N’ Roses pinball, and I was right: the boozy brigade was out in full force this lovely March evening, but the show rocked (for the most part).

The Anix made sure the crowd stayed tame for the first 45 minutes of the show. Their music was altogether good quality, but the songs blurred together into one long set of subdued synth-pop, heavy percussion and the smooth drone of vocalist Brandon Smith. By the end of the set the crowd was just begging to be electrified, to move something besides their toe or head. They were appreciative of the guys on stage, more musicians than showmen, but everybody knew the main reason they were there and The Anix weren’t it. They may be the kind of band that probably thrives with studio releases. I never felt a surge of energy while The Anix were on—and I was standing next to a speaker— but the vocalist sure did have a purdy mouf’, and sex appeal has a winning record so far which means they’ll probably be alright (right?). Ultimately, for guys with an album entitled “Play, Dance, Repeat”, they didn’t live up to their billing.  (more…)
