BlazerJacket – The Second (EP – Blazer Jacket)
Genre/Influences: Dark-Electro, Industrial.
Format: Digital.
Background/Info: Hailing from Ukraine this is the second EP by BlazerJacket. “The Second” is inspired by sci/fi and ‘cyberpunk aesthetics’ and ‘pays homage to iconic franchises like Star Wars, Ghost in the Shell, Terminator, and Watch Dogs.’
Content: The EP features 5 songs taking off with heavy blasting sound treatments carried by stumping kicks and progressively evolving towards a more melodic approach featuring a few vocal lines.
+ + + : The debut songs are a heavy blast; kind of smack in your face revealing impressive sound treatments. There are empowering guitar parts while the very few vocals/samplings add a cool, little extra. This is heavy, powerful, dance stuff.
– – – : I’m sure some of the tracks could be a little bit more sophisticated but there’s no reason to complain.
Conclusion: This EP sounds like a heavy piece of Electro-dynamite; let’s keep an eye on this band!
Best songs: “Dark Side”, “The Power”, “DedSec”.
Rate: 8.

Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
