The Blood Of Heroes

review by justintime

Self titled album, The Blood Of Heroes, is a collaboration project featuring Justin Broadrick (Godflesh, Jesu, Napalm Death) and Bill Laswell, with beats from Submeged and End.user and vocals from Dr. Israel.  A wild mix of Industrial Dancehall, Metal Dubstep, Ambient, and Drum N Bass.  Agressive with heavy drumbeats, the mix of genres creates a new sound that transcends the usual Metal/Industrial sound.  Tempered by the ambient vibe and laced with Middle East/Asian influences, the music doesn’t club you over your head, but still has a very dark, futuristic dystopian vibe.  Music to listen to while reading Paolo Bacigalupi.
