Usually I say ‘if the metal sounds like chaos it’s a crap band’, though it’s the same chaos that makes metal so great. Firstly you will need to be able to brain shift fast enough to tolerate the changes in tempo, speed, rhythm. The second chaos parameter is that the band does manage to get something recognizable in there. It’s okay to confuse the mind for a while, but every song must go back to melody at some point.
Mnemic is possibly the ‘screamiest/loudest’ industrial I’ve ever listened to, but in addition it is the most chaotic. Sometimes they completely miss what I described above and sometimes they get it right with a vengeance.
Check out how fast that song changes and tries to confuse your brain! The trick is to find the new ‘recognizable’ part a.s.a.p. I’m a hardened metal listener so I know what to listen to very fast (drums, guitar, vocal). You kind of mentally block out the rest (or give it second place). Then about 2 minutes in you notice the melody again and your brain leaves a big sigh of relief. XD. Really cool rif btw. I’m deaf now. Had this on in the car this morning.
