I have listened to a lot of explorative metal music out there, but there is something about Angel Marcloid?s music that makes it far and above the most unique. Fire-Toolz is less metal and more electronics, but the electronics being used are something I have never seen before. These very explorative and bright utopian virtual pallets are backed by some very explosive and harsh black metal-style screams and blast beats. But it doesn?t stop there the influences of vaporwave, sound collage, and jazz are also in the mix in just different each song can be. But the biggest accomplishment for this album is that Fire-Toolz has been building and evolving this sound since 2015 and finally everything seems to be coming together. In the beginning, this creation was a bit odd and everything seemed forced. Now the sonic landscape, although polarizing to the average listener, is something that creates a must-listen for people who are tired of the same old metal.
