album review

Home | Interviews | Live Pictures | Reviews | News | Tourdates | Message Boardz | Links | Search | CD Store | Trade Index | Mailing List | The ever evolving Fantomas has come back at us with new insight of what maddness really is. Where they brought us down the back alley on the dark and almost movie score of "Delirium Cordia", "Suspended Animation" brings you back to the days of Mr. Bungle almost mixing up the maddness. Playing heavy, time changing percision Slayer riffs with cartoon nonsense in the background just makes you think of that tale from the Twilight Zone when the kid had all those powers and turned the house into a living cartoon. Well this would be the soundtrack going on in the background, at times it seems Delirium was a set up to make you want to delve into this world and now that Fantomas has you, it's not a pretty sight. Also the biggest gag is that the tracks are the days of April, as it's the "National Humor and Anxiety Month". Not sure where Mr. Patton's mind can take us from here, but I know I can't fucking wait.
