The Ongoing Significance Of Steel And Flesh
powell / karl o'connor (regis) - The Ongoing Significance Of Steel And Flesh
*Second edition in plain sleeve with insert* Diagonal, a new label from London demands your attention with three KILLER bare-boned rhythm tracks by label head Powell, backed with a superb Karl O'Connor (Regis) remix. Powell's original tracks are a masterful reduction and consolidation of ideas studied from the likes of Nitzer Ebb, Suicide and Mika Vainio, matching their rockabilly attitude with the kind of dry, technoid funk exercised by Raime or Vatican Shadow. His title track is all chugging, bow-kneed swagger, like warehouse music made in 1959, while '09' is sludgier and gloweringly stush, and 'Robotics' like some leather-lashed tribal tattoo from Cut Hands. Needless to say, Karl O'Connor's remix appointment is an inspired choice - a purified reduction of fluid bass and echoic snares subsumed by a looming, pitch black wave of wraith-like phantasms. An essential selection for the connoisseurs.
