After several successful collections of independent artists, DSBP appeared to
be able to do no wrong. Unfortunately, with "Elektro Discharge", the label
compiles a list of rather mundane tracks. Even bands I normally enjoy like
Biopsy, Velvet Acid Christ, Noxious Emotion, Manhole Vorex and Holocaust Theory
submit substandard material for this compilation. The remainder of the bands,
including those from the Northwest who are good friends of mine like Fockewolf,
Attenuated Euphoria, Volition, Gasket, and RKiK contributed better material on
the last independent collection on which they appeared. Realistically, there is
nothing wrong with the music on this CD because none of it is actually that
bad, but the real problem is that it isn't that good either. I can't hear any
passion or sense of musical purpose making me wonder why some of these bands
even bothered to contribute. Ultimately, we are allowed to have a bad day once
in a while and that is what "Elektro Discharge" is for DSBP.
