...funner than teasing a snake in the pet shop.

Immute : Jackals was a fun and crazy album, with odd time changes and crossovers into dissimilar styles. Their sophomore album, Consume Rapture, was a much darker album almost like black thrash. The band had grown up to a higher level of technical thrash on that release. So here they are two years later with the Twitcher EP. What the hell is a Twitcher? It's someone who suddenly moves or jerks around with nervous muscle spasms. So is this release going to be a dark album or a fun album? Will there be a lot of funk rock filler, or six solid songs of kick ass thrash?

David runs the usual gamut of vocal schemes, which portray an eclectic array of personalities to make for very interesting presentations. There are the voices of naive idiots, angry madmen yelling about their psychotic problems, and dark grim vocals of demonic approval. His guitar riff shifts come as fast as a cranium amputation and are sometimes as explosive as a hidden pipe bomb. But they do become more ambient during the more dramatic breakdowns. Networking starts with very fast talking and cussing like Ted Nugent is known for. He spins his fingers through the fret board for some dazzling guitar work, to decorate some choppy fast rhythms. Then he breaks out with intricate riffs, with an odd melody like the style of Ministry. The back up vocals sound crazy and grim like a growling beast. Then the music picks up the pace with furious technical shredding.

Luis normally plays deep and heavy bass chugging, as is typical of South American bassists. He usually only plucks the higher notes to back the fast guitar chops. Waves starts with intense thrashing and bulldozing bass lines. David is screaming like a lunatic with a twisted point of view. The flashy guitar leads come back and forth like a battle charge bugler. Virgile displays fast double bass drum pounding in between the snare drum flare ups. Mexican Death Pop starts with David asserting; "I need you like I need a gun in my hand". A jumpy thrash rhythm is played super fast, as the drummer plays some intricate beat patterns. The bass lines rip up and throw down, while blazing fast guitar licks hit the high notes for a catchy effect. Then about halfway through there is a fun and comical vocal chorus. The lyrics seem to be about someone who is killed for making too much noise. The song ends with ferocious thrashing.

This time around Kunvuk breaks out with some innovative technical thrash, that crashes close into the lines of progressive and industrial metal. David sometimes hyper drives some catchy technical guitar riffs, like a steadily flinching Twitcher. The drums also play technical beat patterns, that are conducive to sudden spasmodic body movements. Sometimes they venture into some daring experimental textures, with the mentality of anything for the sake of entertainment. They toy with some synthesized audio parts and even some electric piano music. These electronica and industrial infusions are a welcome change from the usual funk incursions. David is a real character and a piece of work, like Rob Zombie was with White Zombie. Twitcher is a very technical EP, but it isn't very dark, it's funner than teasing a snake at the pet shop.
