  • They Say...

    Relax Into the Abyss is a collection of tracks from Snog's most recent album (Third Mall From the Sun) remixed by various relatively obscure DJs. Dance remixes of industrial music are always a good idea because they usually retain the heaviness that makes industrial music fun while leavening it with rhythmic and textural variety (the lack of which being what keeps industrial music from being fun for more than a few minutes at a time). Cases in point: Xingu Hill's rolling mid-tempo take on "The Last Diamond," Black Lung's tweaked-up house mix of "Real Estate Man," and Beam Up's deeply funky realization of "State Rape" (check out the orchestra and big-band sampling on that last one). David Thrussell's stentorian voice is something of a one-trick pony, but it takes a back seat to the music on these mixes, which works very much to the music's advantage.
