Review:

For those of you who take pleasure in all things musically brutal, I'm going to assume you've heard of Rammstein; and certainly when I first heard them, it was a revelation. The techno style drum beats, the thick wall of guitars and the harshly communicated vocals, were a near perfect combination. However, before long I began to desire something heavier and faster; a satisfaction which Turmion Kätilöt has fulfilled in every way, shape and form. Throughout 'Perstechnique', the elements of each song remains much the same; lay down a simple fist-pumping rhythm, add some low tuned guitar, a dash of electronics, roughly spoken vocals and  then execute the simple formula with talent and precision. Normally, repetition would be a cause for concern; however with a formula so good, who cares? Additionally, Turmion Kätilöt manages to squeeze in a few fresh elements here and there, such as with 'Hanska' which could easily be mistaken for a hip-hop or a black metal track upon hearing a sample from the first minute. Other highlights include 'Grand Ball', which delivers all the pieces of the puzzle to perfection, and 'Suolainen Kapteeni', which manages to work symphonic elements, and strangely enough, an exotic Middle Eastern vibe, into the foundations of the song, in such a way that you'd never stop to question thier existence.
