│ Skalp's first 10" is a bit of a departure from normal Tesco fare, │
│ and sounds more like something you'd find on │
│ Cold Meat Industry or LOKI. Of course, │
│ there's no problem with that, especially since │
│ Skalp's debut is a very good one. │
│ │
│ The first thing I noticed: as far as I can tell, it's on freaking │
│ glow-in-the-dark vinyl. │
│ While I'm too anal about the protection of my vinyl to test it, │
│ this looks quite phosphorescent to me, so this is definitely │
│ something I've never encountered before. │
│ The second thing I noticed was the music. │
│ Drones, echoes, and awesome metal percussion │
│ create a very ritualistic sound, which is to my surprise, │
│ accompanied by vocals. │
│ │
│ Vocals are a thing you'd know I'm quite touchy with, │
│ if you read my past reviews. Frankly, I'm not at all used to lyrics │
│ being used within Skalp's genre of music, │
│ but given a chance, I was pleasantly surprised. │
│ Distorted and processed, these become a part of the │
│ music rather than something that hinders it. │
│ │
│ Another thing that I was very impressed with was the percussion. │
│ While Militia holds the record for using the most varied forms │
│ of percussion, Skalp takes second place, and whereas │
│ Militia sounded sometimes chaotic or unstructured, │
│ Skalp's use of it is fantastic. Deep bass drums, bells, clangs, │
│ and - something I've not heard before - chains! │
│ │
│ I'm very impressed with this new act's debut. │
│ While it doesn't seem like the norm for Tesco, │
│ it is quite unlike anything else I've heard, │
│ combining the best of several genres into one amazing blend. │
