Background/Info:
Norwegian sonic
terrorist Nichlas Schermann is back on track with his newest album entitled
“Norze”. A few tracks have been accomplished by the help of guests Exome and
Christoffer Skogen.
Content:
“Norze” moves on
where the previous albums stopped; a continuation of harsh industrial and
power-noise with a dark industrial-techno touch on top. There’s a slow
progression in the tracklist, which takes off a rather industrial/power-noise
way and moves on into hard-banging industrial-techno. The input of Lorenzo
Arcari aka Exome is quite important as he got featured on 4 songs; mainly the
songs with heavy, distorted vocals.
+ + + :
Distortion Six
remains one of those artist holding on the power-noise style, but I like the
way he mixes it with good-old industrial elements and techno structures. The
industrial-techno tracks, which are mainly appearing at the second part of the
work are my favorite ones. It sounds rough, unpolished, a bit transcendental
and definitely the right stuff to get dancefloors on fire. The addition of
enraged vocal parts on a few cuts is more than simply a little bonus; it rocks!

Some songs from the
first part of the work can’t totally convince me for being a bit too
stereotypical and old-styled.
Conclusion:
Distortion Six is a
project bringing the best of power-noise together with industrial-techno; it
feels like a sonic bridge and –bomb between the past and the present.
