Sounds Like
crushing atmospheric heavyness, grinding compression of time/space, elegiac out-of-body movement.
WHO IS FRAGMENT KING? a shred of humanity amidst the cold machinery of a lifeless society: "...fat groovy beats in combination with massively
distorted guitars and deeply rolling bass in addition to parole-like
screamed text messages, which could be described as a mix of Power Electronics
and Drone Doom with aggressive backgrounds, produced by Kammerbauer
in an enormously dense and fat manner. Godflesh on even more drugs?
More than that Grey Album makes you sweat, evokes anger, releases force,
in the controlled songs with slower pace as well as in the angry, fast
noise machines, in which the Fragment King has incorporated almost insane
energy eruptions in a pretty defragmented way." Fragment King: Grey
Album CD (9,5 of 10) Thomas Sonder -

Hey. Thanks for adding us. It's amazing that there is actually bands out there that can successfully mix electronic beats with heavy guitars and sound good.
Hey few-months-dutchman! We have a new non-heavy but quit fuzzy no nonsense surfinstrumental on our myspace with a vintage cartoon added. Based on the famous Dutch Racecardriver Maus Gatsonides! Hope the King likes it! cheers
