    Infra Red Combat is right up there with my favorite `industrial' songs of all time. I love music that builds and builds into a mound of emotion and sound, and this song does just that. The whole album almost takes on an organic-like form. Every piece twists and grows through amazingly talented instrumentation, vocals and lyrics. I'm not even going to attempt to analyze every track or do a long drawn out comparison from previous albums, because I'm just not good at doing that. I will, however, tell you this is (in my opinion) Front Line Assembly's finest piece of work till date as an album, as an ensemble.

    Special mention also for the incredible Modus Operandi ; really diabolical (in a positive way if on exist ) ! )and awesomely crafted; and for Mortal; perfect soundtrack for the industrial city of 90s (why i think always Detroit or Vancouver as an Indstrial city ?)
    How much i like the SOUND of this album; the mixing and production are really perfect.
