"This is a brilliant album. I've been into the band for a while and I can't wait for the new one. This CD shifts from mood to mood, while still keeping the same great dark industrial tone...



Blurred and Muted- Instrumental track. The music is almost eerie but fades wll into the next track



Undone- nice synth background, good lyrics. catchy.



Just like you- the synth part after the chorus almost makes you picrute some sort of demented freak show. powerful synth, good crunch guitar.



Normal- strong song. with a begining that really draws you in.



Send me and angel- cover song, really catchy and great use of synths once again. (MuBo is a genius) also very good drums.



Breathe for me- my personal favorite. it's one of the only two tracks on the cd that use piano as well as everything else. it has a beautiful sound that, well, i can't really describe. just a great song.



comes to tongue- hate to say it but it's probably the weakest track on the cd. it still sounds great, don't get me wrong, but somehow it seems to fall through.



your fiend- great kinky song. reminiscent of NIN in the begining.



therapy scares me- another strong start that pulls you in. great use of the synth, once again.



how to destroy an angel- excellent guiitar/synth coordination ((if that makes sense)) and vocals are really awesome on this track. great lyrics as well.



a deep breath- begining almost makes you want to skip ahead a few seconds. the sound is weak and mellow but it fits the song, so it turns out good.



where the beauty ends- sounds dark and kick ass! the main focus is probably on the percussion beat vs. the synth.



precious nothing- good way to end the CD. it's an angsty kill-tour-whore-cuz-you-thought-it-was-more-than-that song. the guitar and bass lines add to the strong sound along with dearborn's voice pouring over it all.



it probably didn't help much, but it's here, and DSA is a great band all around so check them out."

Amazing...finally someone to carry the torch for industrial

"With Marilyn Manson retiring and Nine Inch Nails not too far behind, it looked to me like industrial music was about to disappear (at least any good industrial music). Then I heard a couple of songs by this band on Chronix Aggression, and I was very impressed. I got the album and I love every single song, 10 of 10 for every song. The top tracks are Just Like You, with its mocking guitar line that is eerily like Manson and the profane lyrics, Your Fiend with the slow driving beat reminiscent of Nine Inch Nails and the overtly sexual lyrics, and then the best song on the album Where The Beauty Ends which is very dark and the lyrics are amazing. These guys are more than capable of carrying the torch for industrial, they are not metal by the way there is too much distortion for them to be a metal band in my opinion. Pick this up now, these guys are amazing."

I Gambled and Won with this one

"This cd was a gamble for me. I'm usually into pure hardcore metal. But this cd caught my attention. I listened to the samples they had on there site. I liked what I heard. But I had no idea what the rest of the cd would sound like. So, I went ahead and bought it. I put in my cd player and turned up the volume. Wow, I was stunned. For not even being the pure super hardcore sound that I'm use to listening to. I really liked what I heard. Personal favorite tracks are: Send me and Angel, Therapy scares me, Normal. Great cd!"
