Front Line Assembly: Plasticity
- Plasticity
- Replicant
- Plasticity (zero remix)
Following on the footsteps of the 'Virus' single released after Caustic Grip
consisting of non album tracks and remixes, Front Line Assembly has released
'Plasticity' another single in the same vein. The intriguing item with this
single is that while it was released after "Hard Wired" the single would appear
to sound more at home on "Tactical Neural Implant". Guitars are conspicuously
absent or buried so deep in the mix that my untrained ear cannot pick them out
and instead aggressive dancefloor electronics thunder across the layered tracks.
As a result 'Plasticity' has totally replaced 'Re-Animate' as my favorite FLA
by ferocity and sheer force of will. This single should do well to reaffirm the
faith of those diehard FLA fans who felt that the band peaked with "Tactical
Neural Implant" by giving them more electro purist style programming free from
the taint of the guitar. If the reaction of the crowd when 'Plasticity' was
played live at the Chicago show was any indication of the strength and power
of this track, it ought to do very well across the entire industrial audience.
Front Line Assembly are: Bill Leeb & Rhys Fulber
