Karnage & Rider Shafique 'Realise' EP (Infernal Sounds)
Infernal Sounds enlists Karnage and iconic Deep Medi mic-man Rider Shafique on this monster of a new record. Lead single ‘Realise’ is a clattering, industrial juggernaut that keeps marching forward with a deepest, darkest lean. It’s all punctuated by Shafique’s hazy, spoken-word flow and fiery monologue. On the flip, Karnage then goes all-out on the icy ‘Bayside Shakedown’, a track that first hits you with its shiny, piercing and glass-like melodies, before some eerie passages of Halloween-style keys drift in and out of focus. A proper dubstep 12”, this.
8/10
