5.0 out of 5 stars THE CHILD DEVIANT!, June 5, 2007

As of 2007, this is the best Grendel album. I thought 'Prescription Medicine' (prior album) was just ok. This album is way more interresting in every way. The song "Hate" is amazing! Other songs like "The Judged Ones", "Remnants", and "B.A.A.L (Deliver Me)" have great Electro-Industrial beats and the vocals are clear. The production on this album is excelent, and it seems that Grendel have matured in every way. This is a strong EBM album. Verry aggressive dance music for the black herd. If I had to compare this album musically...I would say it's simulur to [:SITD:], and Combichrist.

Well, the only thing I can say is that this is the BEST release of this Dutch band so far...Buy it, you won't regret it. Sorry I can't write more, but I am listening to them and I can't stop dancing!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Grendel Album Yet, August 30, 2007

This is the Grendel album I've been waiting for. I've always wanted to like the albums, but they were missing something for me. I knew he/they would make something great though. Covering Zombie Nation showed musical smarts and enough of a sense of humor that I knew the potential was there. Harsh Generation delivers on it. I suspect the addition of other players makes a difference, but whatever happened, it worked. Hard, catchy, and intelligent about its themes. The album has significantly more oomph than the previous releases, and much higher production values that make the songs snap out at you. A good sense of play with the ideas, and enough poetic sense to come up with lyrics like "void malign" that avoid falling into trite hateful lyrics yet remain aggressive and/or dark. Use of vocal effects has been pulled back so that a bit of a voice emerges, plus the vocals are more on top than before, giving the songs even more identity. The album is both smartly short and varied, so overall very entertaining. Something of a horror science fiction feel to it, trance friendly harsh ebm. Starts strong and stays strong to the end. By the by, the double disc is well worth it with a great roster of remixers if you can find it.
