Before I continue, please allow me to apologize for this review in advance. It is most likely going to be one shithouse review, but please bear with me nonetheless and hear my lament. Every since I've discovered aTelecine, my life is in ruins. I can't sleep, I can't eat, I lost my job, I haven't seen my friends in months, I haven't shaved in weeks, I haven't seen sunlight in days...
aTelecine is an industrial/noise/black metal combo (more or less)... Featuring... Wait for it....... Sasha Grey. Oh yes. Yes. Oh yes. Yes! I am hereby admitting that yes, I am a male and I definitely, definitely, definitely cannot stop drooling over the fact a world-famous *uhum* star is in a industrial/noise/black combo (sort of). Call me immature, call me a hormone-crazed teenager, call me whatever the hell you like... I'm just very amused at this very little fact. And I like everything sensational.
In all seriousness, though. aTelecine. A Cassette Tape Culture is perhaps one of the prettiest little records you've ever heard. Delicate little melodies tumble over other tiny little melodies, birds sing their little songs in the morning sun, glimmering drops of dew come crashing down from the burnt trees in this barren wasteland, ravenous beasts claw at each other in a desperate hunger-crazed battle. Well, uhm, actually none of that is really true, but you know what I mean, right?
Ok, for realz, aTelecine is a mixture of looped squeals, screams, squeaks and everything else vicious. Sasha's distorted orgasms serve as vocals, something heavy pounding on something metal serves as drums, hisses, mindlessly repetitive, imagine Eyehategod fistfucking Godflesh or if you're not into overly-obscene references just for shock value than just imaging something really minimalistic, metallic and noisy. That'll do just as well.
So what's the value of this little baby if it wouldn't have been co-created by Sasha Grey? It's hard to say, really. Is it really necessary to look at this, purely from a musical point of view? We're on a music site, so yeah, maybe it is. But then again, in a way, knowing who is part of this little ensemble does enhance the grey, oppressive and depressive nature of the music, doesn't it?
Good night to y'all, sirs, I'm off to collect some more of the girl's material. There's nothing else to live for, anyway.

If you're interested in extreme, often emotional and underground music, check out my reviews. I retired from reviewing, but I really used to be into that stuff.

I'm gonna make a ruling on this one right now. There's nothing wrong with a man enjoying enticing "sounds" and paying tribute to the holy presence of one of the world's most popular *ehem* stars  . By the way, I had to look her up  . I'm not into porn, but unlike Marcel, I don't think it's a waste of time, everybody is entitled to his own opinion. Way to go Lucas, I wish you all the best man  .
Not gonna lie, I almost laughed my head off reading your comments guys. Somebody should put them in "Funny Stuff" section .
Now, concerning the review, here's what you all need to know :"In all seriousness, though. aTelecine. A Cassette Tape Culture is perhaps one of the prettiest little records you've ever heard." That's it, these guys have apparently delivered a decent performance with this record and that's all that matters.
Thumbs up for Ms.Grey and her compatriots  . And nice entertaining (obviously) review. |

All those comments made me piss my pants, and fuck! now I have to change them and it's not the end of the week yet XD
off-topic: anyway, did anybody notice that not a single female metalstormer has posted anything???????
on-topic: if Sasha Grey would piss on a piece of paper and sell it as art...I'd buy it  on second thoughts I wish she'd so that
EDIT: I just got the album, and noisecore is a very interesting genre, the album was real Creepy (especially Auon, I'm sensing some wicked nightmares tonight), it felt like listening to the static ambient music while playing Silent Hill :S ...but I wished she'd do something more understandable (at least to me), dunno how to explain this in simpler words, something I'd be able to listen to a second time... |

| Well, you know you're far too much into internet porn when you read a review, and recognize the name of an, underground, but one of your favorite, actresses. |

I read this after commenting. Sorry to ruin it for you. And no female MSers ever comment on Lucas' reviews. They know what to expect. |

| Yeah well personally... I don't find anything interesting in this ''Style''... I don't get where metal comes into play ? DOes this album really deserve to be on this website when knowing that some actual metal bands are blacklisted... I don't think so. |

| Watching Sasha Grey in porn is virtually impossible; she constantly insists on making inane "sexy" dialogue. She just needs to shush. |

She could learn a thing or two from Jenna Haze.
I like this thread. It's actually more about pronz than music. |

I agree, from this thread alone I've learned that I need to look up Jenna Haze which is more credible than most people's music recommendations. |

The overall knowledge of porn actresses in this thread is immense. How do you learn the names of pornstars anyway? And, more importantly, do their names matter at all? After all, most of the time you're watching parts of their bodies that are far less recognizable than faces |

You stay single for a long period of time. |
