    Here's a nice detailed, in-depth review of our gig at The Cockpit supporting Pure Reason Revolution.

     

    "I had checked out Industry on their MySpace page in advance and they sounded interesting, not least because all of their song titles seem only to be one word. They proved to be even more interesting in reality.

     

    They opened with Echoes, appropriately with echoing guitar before the synth, then drums then bass came in, and it rocked off with much riffing and a heavy sound. Matt Benatan's synth was providing the melody, with Chris Core's guitar riffing below it, and the sound was good for them, except that Matt's vocals were coming across low in the mix and a little muffled - you could not fault him for the energy he was putting into them, though. The track builds until it bursts, more riffing before the guitar sound becomes spacey, echoing again, then another burst and Chris is riffing, melody from the synth, and this long opener explodes again with Matt's vocals screaming out as they head into a big finish. Powerful stuff, and after starting like that it was well worth mentioning the free cds which they had left under a poster Matt had made with a top grade marker pen from Wilkinsons - take the cds, just don't scuff the poster ! And before the end of their set all the cds had been taken.

     

    Next up was Deeper, with a heavier start, thumping bass from Rob Harvey, massive drums from Adam Howlett, and they produced a very impressive rhythm section throughout the set. This was a shorter, sharper song, the vocals reminded me of Red Hot Chilli Peppers in their feel, big riffing in a track which was faster, harder, straighforward, breaking into feedback before hitting the guitar solo, the track then slowing but still heavy, before the drums take up the pace again, the vocals scream out and it ends.

     

    A synth intro ripples out to take us into Sirens, before a combined guitar and drum burst cuts in sharply just the once, the ripples continuing as the drums and bass come in fully, and then a guitar riff which has a wonderful Porcupine Tree feel to it, a considered, intricate guitar solo before a big noise of guitar riffs, a pause, feedback, the track takes off again and pounds through to its close.

     

    Coercion begins with feedback which is allowed to flow out, the upbeat tempo to the beginning sounds restrained, then the drums let go, the bass rumbles, the guitar sound is noise rather than melody, the track calms a little before exploding with more noise, a thumping rhythm, the synth sound comes in sharply, it is pointed, the cymbals are crashing, drums roll in, heavy riffing, bass drum pounding, pounding, pounding. A voice in the crowd shouts out "awesome", and he is not wrong.

     

    The sample intro to Saviour is cut into by the guitar with piercing, hard, heavy licks, big feedback, another epic sound, racing drums and bass, the guitar riffs over the top of that are deep, crunching in this big rocker of a track.

     

    They close with Void, a slower start with the guitar echoing over the drums, more dynamic riffs as the track speeds up and then goes, a higher guitar sound picking out notes, circling, as the drums and bass keep us moving along, the track pauses before the drums take us off again, racing once more, loads of energy, the riffing guitar now giving more rythm than melody, then returns to picking notes. It's a heavy sound now, screeching guitar, intense, thumping wall of sound, a truly dramatic vocal performance from Matt, who has been animated throughout the set, and they throw out a false ending before picking up again faster than before to properly climax.

     

    Speaking with Matt afterwards he said they were all really happy to be on the same bill as Pure Reason Revolution, and I do not think anyone in the audience will have been disappointed with them being on the bill. As a Porcupine Tree fan I am delighted to have encountered them and will be following them with great interest. You can catch them next at The Duke of Wellington in Lincoln on Saturday 28 March."

    Colourful?! I have no idea which sticks you mean, but i wanna know!

     

    Im talking about them black ones made of fucking steel or something. Metallicas and Slipknots drummers use them.

     

    oh the carbon ones

     

    DONT use them

     

    you will break your wrists AND your cymbals

     

    Wooden sticks absorb the energy...carbon doesnt so all teh shockwaves goes into your cymbals or bones.

     

    AVOID
