homemade.

-We
wanted so make a physical album with best (IMO) songs from our albums from past

CD Review:
Favorite songs: Delusional Fermentality, Beloved Mother
When it comes to industrial music, most people think of Germany. However, that is not always the case as Oira317 proves. Hailing from Poland, this amazing artist breaks the stereotype and brings us Torment of Wingless Angel. But, if you're looking for a soft, delicate flower go find a rose garden.
This albums features all that one would expect from a heavy hitting industrial piece. Eerie synths melodies, low growly vocals and heavy, distorted drumlines, which in themselves gives this album its own unique flavor. Like those found in Beloved Mother and Delusional Fermentality. Perfect blends of everything that is great about industrial music. Great feeling can be heard in Wingless Angel. It's one of the tracks that I play repeatedly throughout the day.
I enjoyed Torment of Wingless Angel very much and keep Oira 317 in a constant rotation on SoundCloud. I definitely recommend this album to anyone who enjoys the likes of Skinny Puppy, Combichrist etc...
