No Punishment - No Paradise

supported by

RRiptyde Probably AIA's most accessible album but by no means of any lesser quality than their previous releases. The pulse-pounding beats and attention to detail are all here. A guest spot from the one and only Psyclon Nine is worth the purchase alone. Highly recommended. Favorite track: Kiss The Ring (feat. Psyclon Nine).

Reptars Just a really good song to dance too amplify & kiss the ring just take me way back Favorite track: Wolves At The Door.

about

With "Shine & Burn" (2014) and "Apollo & Dionysus" (2016), the Australian gang of AVARICE IN AUDIO have served us an impressive range of electronic music genres, profiling themselves as one of the most versatile and unpredictable bands on the electro industrial scene.

Today, they return after two years to deliver “No Punishment : No Paradise”, their 3rd full length studio album. Once again eschewing conventional musical practices, this record has been built from the ground up, shunning the polish of previous works in favour of a more visceral, raw and unapologetic sound. Gerry’s devilish screaming has never sounded so good once paired with Ben’s stellar vocal range of Gregorian era chanting, punk rock style singing and his own screams in unison.

The songs this time around are much more “Australian” in style than ever, with synthpop style instrumentals meeting Lawrie and Ben’s skilled guitar work, both blending in grungy rhythms and soaring solos mixing in with the electronic layered production.

Featuring collaborations with Industrial Pop provocateurs AESTHETIC PERFECTION, Aggrotech Pioneers PSYCLON NINE and Progressive Electronica Producers BLAST RADIUS, AVARICE IN AUDIO have favoured here a “Quality Over Quantity” approach to collaborations, intending to seize the listener with their artisan approach to music.

“No Punishment : No Paradise” is undoubtedly harsher, dirtier and harder than any previous AVARICE IN AUDIO output so far, while still holding on to the band’s key sound characteristics including infectious synth melodies, vicious vocal dualities, groovy basslines, a modern electro production style and overall noir atmospheres. A true hypnotic tour de force of dark elektro industrial straight into your brain for the absolute sonic punishment before redemption…

Definitely recommended to fans of AESTHETIC PERFECTION, FADERHEAD, COMBICHRIST, GRENDEL, L’AME IMMORTELLE or yet FREAKANGEL.

Wake Up The Coma

I was pleasantly-surprised by this album. I was expecting something colder, slower, and ambient from what little I first heard before I bought it. Instead, it's not too unlike the later Mechanical Soul. There's elements of old and new FLA here, and there's parts of this that I rather like. I wouldn't mind more collab songs, for one, or for more flirting with other genres. Give me both vaporwave-y songs AND hardcore industrial dance. Rocket Verliden

Eyes On Backwards

This album should be ranked very high in ranks of latest industrial albums, because it just crushes the competition. THIS is how it's done people. Menacing vocals, pounding drums and haunting electronics have no mercy on your ears and leave you with not one second of peace. Play this loud and do people around you a service. FLESH MECHANIC
