oHgr - weLt

            This CD is damn good. Really, really damn good.  After I listened to it for a few weeks, I let people borrow it.  I actually went through oHgr withdrawal.  It was insane!  The album art is some of the coolest I have ever seen.  It has these funny little creatures; they look like psycho gophers, attached to machines and organic-looking nerve structures.  There’s also the most interesting nonsense quote I have ever read inside the CD booklet.  You have to read it.  It’s all very odd.

            The music and the vocals are amazing!  There is not one crappy song on this CD, not even a boring filler song.  Every song is catchy in it’s own way, and not like annoying teen pop.  None of the songs use the same sounds either, oHgr is extremely creative.  When listening to this disc, I am reminded of Skold, just good, basic and fun industrial music.

            My favorite song on the CD would have to be Kettle.  About 50 seconds into the song, they trip it up a bit.  You need to hear it to know what I mean.  It makes me smile every time.  Cracker is also a very good song.  It seems to be about Marilyn Manson: “you think you’re evil but you’re not / still sucking life from the mainstream” and “its so deluded (diluted?)  Give it up / its unoriginal”.  Pore is another crazy song.  It ends up sounding really weird, but I like it and so does everyone else I talked to.  It’s got this kind of almost hip-hop grove to it. Again, you need to hear it to believe it.

            I think that everyone should own a copy of this CD.  Everyone, N’sync fans, Iced Earth fans, Jay Z fans, Skinny Puppy fans, anyone else with a CD player.  It is that simple.  Go buy a copy.  NOW!
