4.0 out of 5 stars More Level/COD than original Argyle Park, June 6, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Suspension Of Disbelief (Audio CD)

Don't get me wrong.. I like the album, but after reading all the glowing reviews, I was a bit disappointed trying to compare it to the original Argyle Park Misguided album. AP sounds much more like Level, and Klay Scott (Disengage style). I love that stuff too, but the original Argyle Park was more electronic techno, in your face, frenetic, and fun. This is a much more serious album. I miss the Og excerpts, hidden tracks, and "superstyle techno" that was in the original Argyle Park. I'm continuosly listening to the new album though, and it does grow on you. For anyone that enjoys Klay Scott, Level, Klank, etc... this is a must have. You will immediately recognize who wrote what in this album. It could have been a Compilation album. I don't necessarily agree with the Skinny Puppy/NIN references. It sounds a lot more like Fear Factory in the secular side of things.

4.0 out of 5 stars Melodic Surrealism, May 22, 2000

This album is the product of several creative minds experimenting with the electronic music frontier. It has obvious influence from Skinny Puppy, Frontline Assembly, and Circle of Dust. It has atmospheric textures of electronic sound flowing over a foundation of melodies. It feels surreal and chaotic, but within the chaos is rhythmic structures in beautiful harmony. It is just as great as Buka's first project, Argyle Park. My only criticism is in it's volume of content. Whereas Argyle Park had 34 total tracks, 16 of which were actually songs; AP2 has 12. The best tracks on Suspesion of Disbelief are Heroin Hate, My Sympathies, Sillouette of Rage, The Pact, and Resurrection of the Ravens.

3.0 out of 5 stars AP2: Argyle Park 2, April 28, 2000

From the ashes of Argyle Park come AP2 (or Argyle Park 2)! Here, Level and Buka put out twelve brand spanking new tracks. The tracks include collaborations with Klank, Stavesacre frontman Mark Salomon, Ghoti Hook frontman Joel Timothy Bell, and former Circle Of Dust member Klayton. Anyways, this collection of tracks reminds me of Skinny Puppy with a smidgeon of NIN. In other words, you get dark, depressing, chaotic sounds (but nowhere near that of Skinny Puppy) with some heavy guitars. Can't quite label them as "Christian industrial" since there's no mention of God anywhere in their music (but that's doesn't mean you shouldn't listen to them because of that!). Best tracks: "My Sympathies", "The Red Shirt Conspiracy", and "The Resurrection Of The Ravens". By the way, this CD actually deserves 3.5 stars...
