It seems Mindless Faith has contributed
to more than a fair share of compilations
in the past. I had yet to discover
the band's complex crossover-styled
industrial before submitting to writing
this review, though. The band has
devoted its composing to a style of
music that is typically American.
Like many other industrial purists
from "over there", Mindless
Faith has discovered that synthesizers
can actually play a vital role in
the making of aggressive, beat driven
guitar thrashing. "Momentum"
is diverse, primarily in that it offers
up some form of steroid-distorted
future pop as well as songs leaning
more towards the American classics
like Nine Inch Nails. While many other
artists in this particular genre follow
formulas, you have to give Mindless
Faith credit for at least trying to
push the envelope. NIKLAS FORSBERG |
