Prototype is both the strangest Celtic Frost recording and what might lamentably represent the biggest identity crisis in their history, but unlike the Nemesis of Power demo 1. I can hardly blame it for laziness or lack of trying. Self released with gimmick guitar pedal packaging and brazen album title, it looks nothing like any of the bands backlog. In fact, if not for the Cold Lake icon in the right corner, the CF VIII scrawled across the bass of the pedal, and a few of Toms vocal lines through the heavier tunes, it would be quite difficult to qualify as a true Celtic Frost release, but more of an extension of Warriors work in the industrial metal outfit Apollyon Sun in the later 9. That said, Toms mainstay was no stranger to experimentation, and so I cant say I was highly surprised when I first heard this. Only that it hadnt arrived sooner. Celtic Frost Prototype Meaning' title='Celtic Frost Prototype Meaning' />Protoype has a more sleek, modern production than anything Warrior had written to date, and the substantial track list leads me to believe that it was intended as some missing link full length to fill in the gaps of the bands history. Sadly, though, its quite thoroughly awful, despite the rather eclectic mix of ingredients. Normally I have no opposite to the inclusion of electronics, or even pop and hip hop elements to a heavier recording if they contribute to some sense of intrigue, compulsion or just some damn catchy songwriting, but here they seem misused as a tired set of cliches, a very 9. At its very best, the demoalbum is competent and subtle with its external influences, but at worst its a dire mockery of all good taste, tragically lame to the point that it takes on a bad, cartoon like quality. The CD is housed in a box resembling a guitar pedal. Memtest Deluxe Version 3.8 there. The chimes on Totgetanzt were taken from Danse Macabre Morbid Tales, 1984. The lyrics from The Dying I were re.

Sputnikmusic is a premier source for music reviews and music news, covering the best albums in indie, metal, and punk. Im not even sure how to start this review, like my head is reeling thinking of the process that lead Celtic Frost from helping spawn both death metal and black metal. Lets just say that, from where this demo BEGINS, you have little to no idea how it will END, but were not talking about unexpected thrills or twists that one might deem pleasurably rather an air traffic accident that initially seems as if it will cause only minor structural damage to a crafts landing gears but then ends up on the nightly news, hundreds of dead being pulled from the still smoking wreckage. Essentially, the first two tracks are a sort of trance techno, with beats that loop alongside a modicum of glitch electronics, feedback and ominous, crunchy bass against the backdrop. The cyber rendition of the Beatles Helter Skelter is quite interesting, and even if I dont dig how the lyrics grind across the heavily affected guitar samples and beeping noises, it was at least worth a try. Totgetanzt is an original, with even sparser, pulsing textures, sinister breath whispers and cheesy keyboard beats, but nothing as interesting as the cover ever occurs. And then we come to the heavy sequence of the demo, where drudging, muted guitars are affixed to drum machine and samples in a means redolent of Pitch Shifter, or maybe the late 9. Prong material with enhanced electrics. Warrior gets rather aggressive with his vocals on The Dying I or the occasional guffaw in Human Dirt, but elsewhere he uses a sort of nasal, whining vocal that reminds me of Jonathan Davis from Korn. The lyrics are quite miserable through this portion of the track list, with a lot of generic call and response style chorus parts and generic what I am what I am what I am Human Dirt effortless bullshit lyrics that were a heavy symptom of bad 9. The heavily atmospheric electro rock duet November features Toms whimpering alongside a female guest, and Deep Inside one of two Apollyon Sun tracks that wound up here is a passable trip hop tune with some psychedelic guitar swirl backing the chorus, but even the latter becomes incredibly cheesy when it hits the classical piano bridge with the girl whispers deep inside deep inside. Oh so sexy, guys Not. But, honestly, Id take ANY OF THIS over what happens at the end of the demo, where it transforms from merely misspent creative energy into an outright abomination, as if a bunch of ICP juggalos decided to stick bananas in their wrestling thongs and then invade the recording session, bribing Tom with drugs to let them in the studio booth. Get Wicked dagger and grail edit is some weird interlude with a dude rapping in. French, I think Its bad enough that we must suffer its reckless stupidity, but the guy actually has the audacity to include the phrases get down get down in nearly the same breath as he cries procreation of the wicked. At this point I am well on my way to caving in my face with handgun rounds, but Prototype actually gets WORSE, with the heinous and inane Hip Hop Jugend, a hybrid of porn electronics, bad German Rammstein rambling, smutty ooh baby aah baby female narrative and a bunch of manly Eurotrash shouts of Hip Hop Jugend in the background. Seriously, I dare anyone to listen through this song and then tell me again how miserable you think Cold Lake is. If you can make it through without cracking a smile or choking on a combination of laughter at it, not with it and vomit, then I certainly owe you a beer. But trust me, it will haunt you forever. Prototype. As we all know by now, this direction was not one Warrior and Ain pledged to continue, its awkward and unnecessary mutation silently sealed away in vaults of agonizing regret that only a handful were so unfortunate to experience. Monotheist would later steer the band back on track, an acceptable compensation for 1. Im not sure it could ever outlive scars like this.
