Style: Darksynth
Primary Emotions/Themes: Pertubator sheds the synthwave and ends up fully embracing the darksynth side of his sound
Thoughts: My god. What an EP this is. Something like this I never thought would happen, even from the likes of Pertubator.
This album fully embraces the dark side of synthwave... darksynth as it were. It throws away almost all melody, embraces rhythm and pulses in it's place. The more it progresses the darker the music becomes. The darker the music becomes the more it draws me in to the depths of Pertubators mind.
Previous albums had threatened the takeover of machine from men... the album shows that transition completing... both visually and musically. What was only shown in moments before is now on full display throughout the album. This is violent. This is searching for prey. This is the New Model.
Unfortunately this is where my love affair with Pertubator stops though. After this he would go more goth rock, which in itself is not a bad thing... but for whatever reason Pertubator's take on the genre did not work for me. That said, this is one hell of a way to say farewell to the style that defined the first part of your career.
