Title Description:
Following their recent Monster Music EP (adn28) , Larvae present here their first full length album, Fashion Victim. The most ambitious work of these American artists to date, this album is also the culminating point of a painstaking improvement, research and mixing of influences. Powerful, intelligently written and uncommonly diverse, Fashion Victim is an album which goes back to the essence of a real music album, for its tracks are coherent, linked into a whole, and yet possess quality which could make each stand on its own.
Fashion Victim is about my frustration with fashion, image, and superficiality taking precedent over substance says Matthew Jeanes of Larvae. And indeed, this album is one of rich content. While drawing its influence from drum'n'bass, illbient, electronica and noise, this album lets the genre classification to pigeon-holing reviews, and relies on its powerful function to overcome the form. Adds Jeanes: the music is at times angry, at times it sounds defeated and sad, and it's always a bit of a protest.
