Also the US-based label Mizukis Box (DUBOK, ONLY FLESH) has to suffer under the current lack of sales of physical CD’s and has decided to release the follow-up EP of BODYHAMMER for free. You’re of course free to donate a sum, if you think that the provided music by the DUBOK-musician Heil is worth it. To me you should seriously consider this, because also the featured tracks on "The Lateral Line" are impressive. Heil continues generally his music direction, which drifts away from the smooth and melodic-influenced Futurepop-sound of DUBOK. BODYHAMMER stands for a darker and rather EBM/Industrial-oriented sound outfit, which features his extremely processed vocals, diverse rhythm constructions and aggressive pummeling synth bass-lines. A higher complexity thanks to his programming abilities can be noticed, a little Vancouver-inspired influence (FLA) here and there is surely available too. "The Lateral Line" features 5 new own compositions and 2 remix contributions by the label mate TOUCH SENSITIVE. As for a favorite, the speedy "Pole Position" or the opener "Hun Bastards" keep some bodies moving, while "Transient Technique" seduces completely as a listening experience. Heil scores once again and has hammered out a fine follow-up to his still highly recommendable double-CD debut "Neutral Base Culture/Zero Dark". Epic Dark Electro, which completely entertains.
