The Devil got Em
They are gone but not forgotten. I'm a fan of the band and really like their sound and delivery. . A lot of great songs here. . well recorded and exciting to listen to. . Industrial sometimes gives the impression of tecno made up loops and stuff. Thats not the case here. . This is a real band and they have a lot to offer. . recommended CD. . . Chris.


The BEST industrial release ever


Industrial is NOT another term for nu-metal, and it does NOT have to sound like NIN. This cd, for me, defines industrial. Econoline Crush is a very good example of being industrial without sounding overly angry or Reznor like.

The band Econoline Crush are sadly no more now, but this record lives as testament that listenable and publically acceptable industrial rock, although rare, does indeed exist. It escapes me as to why this band wasn't more popular out of its native Canada.

PS: To get the full benefit of this cd, you will have to have a really good stereo, and listen to it a few times over. The songs are very deeply layered, and it will surprise you just how much new stuff you will hear each time you listen to the same track.


Another pleasant surprise
I had really liked the couple of songs from this album that were on the radio, but they didn't seem to get much momentum and just disappeared. I had forgotten about this band. It's a real shame, now that I get to hear how good this CD is. It's got great energy, and a lot of good songs. They show influences of 80s bands like U2, Simple Minds, and The Cult, but with a heavier 90s alternative edge. Considering that this can be picked up new for as little as a penny, there's no excuse not to own this.


One Of The Best Industrial/Alternative Albums Out There
Great tracks are "Surefire", "Home" and "Sparkle and Shine". If you like heavy industrial and/or alternative rock, this CD is a must. Perfect for the people who like Pitchshifter, Gravity Kills and Korn.

Another great industrial album for Econoline Crush fans is "Empty" by God Lives Underwater. .


Solid...
If you go into it for that, you will be let down. This is not a rock-out-with-your-c*ck-out cd. I would say that this is a good disc for fans of groups like Depeche Mode and Gravity Kills. Maybe KMFDM fans would like it. .
