King-Mob’s single “Buddha Tombing” started off as music for a short film and composed of experiments with an AKAI S900 sampler. But what has evolved from that sounds like a mutated hybrid of Dazzling Killmen and A Place to Bury Strangers. Like deconstructed industrial post-punk but with deep reconfiguration of rhythm so that it comes off like a real time hip-hop beat played with live instruments. It has an edge, a brooding menace and it sounds futuristic and beautifully disorienting with its riffs stretched to the breaking point. The fractured beats really make it when paired with the measured pounding of the drums so that it does have a cinematic quality like a soundtrack to a new David Fincher thriller.
