One of the pleasure of discovering a new
Tricky album is finding wich new interesting singers he's introducing. This time it's mostly a young singer, also from Bristol, called Mitch Sanders (a few others featuring are also on the album). he's doing a good job. Tricky, after the disapointing previous album (first one after he lost his daughter so I won't be too hard on him) is back with a strong album. Maybe not on the level of his best ones, but still with many excellent songs, and even the less memorable ones contrinutes to the nice overall feel and atmosphere of the album, so I wouldn't say they're fillers. And speaking about the atmosphere,
Different When it's Silent is another proof Tricky is the absolute master of these laid back but subtly menacing feel. Recommended!

Necropatia Sistemica is AxCxMxE second album. The Columbian grinders play some traditionnal grind, but with goregrind style vocals and a quite clean sounding bass forward in the mix, a bit like in modern tech death. This mix of old school basics and modern elements works fine, nothing groundbreaking, it's still quite basic, but it's an enjoyable album.
