Tactical Neural Implant Reviews

By 1992 Front Line Assembly was starting to make a name for themselves in a big way and this album helped cement them even further into the industrial scene. Sure there's only eight tracks but there's no bullshit on this release at all. Every track on here is awesome and probably could have had its own single. Ironicly the track I like the least is The Blade, which seemed to be the groups most popular song on this album. So why is this album so good? Well, everything seems to fit so tightly together. The lyrics aren't cheesy, the bass is awesome, the keys are great and the drums are heavy. The effects on the vocals for some tracks are cool too, like on Bio-mechanic during the courses. I love that part of the song and even on the live versions it sounded awesome. Another thing about the track is that, in industrial music, it is very hard to pull off a good sounding slow industrial track. This one though pulls it off and I love it tons!

It's hard for me to pick which Front Line Assembly album is my favourite but it's a close tie with this album and Caustic Grip. Both are so strong and are among my two favourite industrial albums of all time.
