    This is an album that sounds invigoratingly abrasive when you're moving and pins you to your seat when you're not, a study in pushing the limits of distortion that works as just plain good club music.

    Credit Egyptrixx for making a debut album that sounds at once so unified and whole, yet like absolutely nothing else.

    If their forthcoming albums match the confidence and uniqueness of Bible eyes, Night Slugs may enjoy another year in the spotlight. [May 2011, p.49]

    It's a highly enjoyable, synthetic, dark, and nearly purely techno experience. Standouts like "Chrysalis Records", show Egyptrixx's ability with manipulating his sound into his specific (and rather dark) desires. The true charm lays in the richness of electronic sounds, fading, warping, twisting melodies and beats into something that evolves and keeps interest. I'd consider it a step above Redshape's "The Dance Paradox" [2009] in albums that share an eerily sinister tone through beat-driven techno.… Expand
