5.0 out of 5 stars one of greatest industrial albums ever!, February 15, 2000

Mentallo & the Fixer are quite possibly one of the most innovative and talented bands in the industrial genre of the 90's. "Where Angels Fear to Tread" is their best album to date. Their songs are spiritual, emotional, and hauntingly beautiful. They provide some of the most complicated and intricate musicianship in the electronic genre. Anybody who is anybody recognizes this band as one of the best. If you prefere intellectual and emotional music, you will love this CD. You don't have to be a "rivethead " or a "goth" to enjoy this masterpiece, but if you like superficial and bland music, do not buy this CD. This CD is for adventerous music listeners with an open mind and it is not for the faint of heart. Gary and Dwayne Dassing are some of the best composers around.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dystopian Sci-Fi Techno-Industrial Bliss., July 2, 1998

This review is from: Where Angels Fear to Tread (Audio CD)

This is the best album by the Brothers Dassing that I have heard yet, besides Continuum. It is an intense powerhouse of industrial beats and dark aural surreal imagery. These good ol' boys from Texas (of all places) really know how to make music that is just as enticing to dance to as it is to listen to on a pair of good headphones under the influence. Any sci-fi or cult movie fan would love this album, it has tastefully injected samples from Blade Runner (The gear-head film of choice), The Devils (a demonic cult film by crazed British director Ken Russell)and Demon Seed (a fascinating sci-fi cult flick from the late seventies). These films clearly served as an inspiration to the elaborate composition found in this work.

Up to and including Algorythm, this album is M&TF's masterpiece. It spans the entire range of human emotion. Aggressive, beautiful, and intelligent...
