Fixture for Toxins - Thernodies for Labour [Self Releash - 2008]

After been very impressed with Fixture for Toxins The Night Hoovers over Us Again from early this year (review here) I was eager to hear this new disk, but sadly it’s rather underwhelming, inconsistent and in places down right amateurish and lame.

I think the main problem comes with this project trying to step outside of their rewarding if fairly one dimensional brutal mix of industrial tone, zero rock, noise, slamming feedback fuzzed beats and muffled vocals. Attempts at varying sound in any project have to be admired, but sadly just about all of these attempts fall flat on their face because the project just don’t have the musical or sonic ability to pull it off  leaving  it sounding amateurish or like  teen age buddies messing around in their bedroom. Sure there are a few of the seven tracks on offer here that strife towards the greatness of  The Night Hoovers over Us Again and nearly get there, but sadly fall at the last post due to amateurish jarrings

I really tried to like this having enjoyed The Night Hoovers over Us Again so much- but the more I tried to like it the more its glaring faults, slap-dash playing and amateurish air became clear to my ears.
