Black Magnet - Hallucination Scene




Woah - this is a crazy one. Industrial metal has taken a lot of interesting turns in recent years. The long shadow of bands like Godflesh and Nine Inch Nails has finally started to be re-interpreted to perfection. I also don't think it would be a stretch to say the industrial ministrations of bands like Code Orange probably helped this along too. The point being, 20 Buck Spin's entrants in the industrial metal arms race are Black Magnet. This incredibly talented group have a new album, Hallucination Scene, and it is a veritable monster. This is what the darkest and most demented industrial metal was supposed to be about in the first place.

Black Magnet may only be just debuting, but there is a very impressive maturity behind this record. These tracks are potent, full of all sorts of exciting frills and a devilish reminder of just how twisted this music can be. There is simply so much to unpack within Hallucination Scene and it routinely feels that within each layer is nested even more industrial goodness. The devastating cry of 'No One Save Me!' that is repeated in the outro of 'Divination Equipment' perfectly foreshadows the rest of the album. It's twisted and dark but it's also going through a very personal pain and is unafraid to share that. In many ways this is a very brave release.

Hallucination Scene is a rager. It's epic and powerful. The crunchy guitars and terrifying sample evoke apocalyptic imagery and seem to continually drive towards despairing new futures. Few records reflect the tormented reality of Hallucination Scene and the deeper one delves the more clear it becomes that this band are incredibly potent and one of a kind. This is what extreme metal was always meant to be about, and Black Magnet's demented take on it is addictive. Will you be joining their heart wrenching salvo?

  1. Natural herbs have cured so many illness that drugs and injection can’t cure. I've seen the great importance of natural herbs and the wonderful work they have done in people's lives. i read people's testimonies online on how they were cured of HERPES, HIV, diabetics etc by Dr Edes herbal medicine, so i decided to contact the doctor because i know nature has the power to heal anything. I was diagnosed with Herpes for the past 3 years but Dr Edes cured me with his herbs and i referred my aunt and her husband to him immediately because they were both suffering from Herpes but to God be the glory, they were cured too .I know is hard to believe but am a living testimony. There is no harm trying herbs, Thanks. Write him on WhatsApp on +2348151937428. @dr_edes_remedies deals with

  2. A GREAT SPELL CASTER (DR. EMU) THAT HELP ME BRING BACK MY EX GIRLFRIEND.
    Am so happy to testify about a great spell caster that helped me when all hope was lost for me to unite with my ex-girlfriend that I love so much. I had a girlfriend that love me so much but something terrible happen to our relationship one afternoon when her friend that was always trying to get to me was trying to force me to make love to her just because she was been jealous of her friend that i was dating and on the scene my girlfriend just walk in and she thought we had something special doing together, i tried to explain things to her that her friend always do this whenever she is not with me and i always refuse her but i never told her because i did not want the both of them to be enemies to each other but she never believed me. She broke up with me and I tried times without numbers to make her believe me but she never believed me until one day i heard about the DR. EMU and I emailed him and he replied to me so kindly and helped me get back my lovely relationship that was already gone for two months.
