The Atrocity Circus are a duo from the United Kingdom that has had music reviewed before in this zine and on this recording plays a mixture of harsh noise, death industrial and power electronics and this is a review of their 2025 album "Malpractice" which was released by Cursed Monk Records.
Industrial style beats start off the album along with some high pitched screams a few seconds later before adding in some power electronics. Harsh noises are also utilized quite a bit throughout the recording while synths are also utilized quite a bit throughout the recording and each song also sounds very different from each other.
Atmospheric soundscapes are also used quite a bit throughout the recording while some tracks also add in a small amount of field recordings. One song also adds in a brief use of throat singing along with some samples and spoken words also being added into certain sections of the album and at times the music also captures a very apocalyptic atmosphere.
On this recording The Atrocity Circus takes harsh noise, power electronics and death industrial and mixes them together to create a very dark release. The production sounds very dark while the lyrics cover disturbing themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from The Atrocity Circus and if you are a fan of harsh noise, death industrial and power electronics, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "The Abattoir Artist" "Glassy Eyed And Terrified" and "Final Fatal Flow". 8 out of 10.
