This review is from: Reincarnate (Audio CD)

Dissonance are steadily becoming one of the great female-fronted modern electronica acts, just behind Curve and Garbage. "Reincarnate" is everything their debut was: energetic, ambient, danceable, and above all brilliant. But this album takes it all a step further. With old songs remixed and rerecorded, there is a clear sign of the band maturing musically and lyrically. Cat Hall's vocals are incredible, possessing a menacing quality sure to send chills down the spine, and yet she's able to soar to those high ranges beautifully. David Sebrind's electronic textures are brilliantly textured and could compete even with KMFDM. The cover of "Eleanor Rigby" is interesting in its treatment of the classical Beatles song, but is not unbearable the way Godhead's cover was (I will never forgive that band for that...it had good instrumentation, but as a Beatles cover it sucked). Every song melds into the next, and yet while they all are in the same dark electronic vein, they don't sound so much alike that it's boring. Quite the opposite... Dissonance are a great new band and this album reaffirms them as a force to be reckoned with. Listen to this album!
