5ive – The Telestic Disfracture (Tortuga)

Out of Boston, Ben Carr on subsonics and Charles Harrold on gears blast thru to the underworld, adding vocals and some new sounds to their rattling rampage at the lower end of the wavelength spectrum. With a cleaner sound to make room for some noise elements, 5ive gets to a more industrial space going beyond the Big Black. While you may miss the rough edges from earlier releases, this duo seems to be building momentum for a breakthrough.
