As a follow up to Choke Chain’s 2020 debut EP, Chain Tactics (which was also listed in our Best of 2020 list), artist Mark Trueman introduces another assaulting round of EBM with the Endless Death EP. The six track album (that includes two remixes) is a nonstop barrage of addictive, classic EBM basslines overtop sharp dance floor beats. Trueman’s in-your-face vocals match the anger and aggression of the music: it is combative, unbridled emotion—just as it should be. With equal parts metallic cacophonous industrial dance music and a fiery, almost combustible, delivery of vocals, Choke Chain is currently one of the scene’s most interesting acts.
Endless Death is out tomorrow, February 5th, digitally as “Pay What you Want” via Bandcamp and tapes are available from Phage Tapes in the US, and OSM Tapes in Europe. Preview the EP in its entirety below.
