The Outside Agency - Goes Noord vs The Rest Of The World II download mp3 flac

This one is a collaboration-release from The Outside Agency with four different artists.

The first one, 'Waste Of Humanity', is made by Eye-D together with hardcore-legend Ruffneck. It's hard, rough and exactly what you expect from these production-heavyweights combined!
The A2 track is a collab form the Norwegian Industrial Hardcore duo Petrochemical with DJ Hidden. The atmospheric industrial sound is really great, and knowing that 'Clockwork Paralysis' is very much influcenced by the movie 'A Clockwork Orange' makes it even a bit darker while listening to it.

When TOA teams up with Ophidian, you expect dark, well-produced, nasty and crispy sounding, tempo-changing industrial. And that's exactely what 'Scattered' gives you. Definately my personal favourite track of this release.
The final track, 'Manhunt II' is a bit more straight forward. Still pretty dark, but despite the nice tempo, it lacks just that little extra that makes the other tracks stand out.

Just as most Genosha Recordings releases, it's definately worth it's money and proves that The Outside Agency belongs to the top when it comes to producing.
On this release they also prove that working together with other great producers results in a great mix of styles. Every track has the distinct TOA-sound, but is also very much influenced by the guest-producer.

So, here it is - the long-awaited Goes Noord vs The Rest Of The World II.

Once again we have two international featurings, who all are located on the darker side of Earth.
For a difference on this release, The Outside Agency also collaborated with two Dutch top-producers.

Waste Of Humanity is a hard, rough, and fast track. It's pounding sounds, and screaming synth gives you an immediately feeling of stomping in the ground.
Awesome production from TOA & Ruffneck!

Clockwork Paralysis is definitely a well-produced industrial track with a touch of dark norwegian atmospheres.
As some of you may have recognized, Clockwork Paralysis is heavily influenced by Walter Carlos' movie-theme music, from the futuristic Kubrick classic, A Clockwork Orange.
It's been a while, since we last heard from PetroChemical, but it was certainly worth the waiting time!

Scattered contains hard kicks, gritty sounds, respectively fast, hard and dark industrial hardcore - exactly what you can expect from an operation with Ophidian.
Great stuff!

Manhunt II is probably the darkest track on the vinyl. The spooky effects, and the creepy atmosphere gives you goose bumps.
But even if a goose bump reflex occur on you, it doesn't change the fact, that Manhunt II is the most boring track on the release.
The buildup isn't the best, and the kicks are pretty 'weak' - still a nice track from TOA & Fracture 4 though.

Even though it's absurd, I will still compare this second installment of Goes Noord vs The Rest of the World to the first installment from 2003.
This one is far more completed and perfected than the first.
Each track on this vinyl have their own unique sound, so there will probably be something on this release, that fits your taste.

So, what can I say? Another must have for every Genosha fan!
