On Gearwhore’s only album, the group turns out some breakbeat/techno tunes in the vein of The Prodigy’s early releases, with thick layers of building percussive interactions and jabs of punkish synth abrasion slipping into trance-like cycling once it hits sufficient accumulation.  The track wrap-ups tend to be the weakest part, often opting for simple fade-outs, something made all the more disappointing by the proficiency demonstrated on the way to those points. 

Some surprisingly tender tones crop up (with “Love” being a stand-out track in that regard), and the song-writing finds some clever ways of twisting the base patterning.  The album flow and transitions occasionally get a little choppy, and the song build-up sometimes takes a while to kick into gear, but for the most part, the music shows some excellent technique and knack for grooves being deployed.  Quite a shame that no follow-up album was created, but as a one-off, it stands pretty strong.
