Music Review: Green Andy Reviews: My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult - Sexplosion!
Rating: 3 Stars
My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult (known henceforth in this review as TKK) have always been a tough bunch to defend. They were aggressively silly in a genre known for its poker-faced seriousness (goth/industrial), and their albums are always extremely hit-or-miss, with one or two real winners surrounded by a lot of failed experiments and throwaway novelty numbers. This album is the closest the group ever came to a consistent success. It still has a pair of songs that outshine the rest of the record, in particular the runaway hit "Sex on Wheelz", a terrific sleazy dance rocker which delivers pretty much what the title promises, as well as "Leathersex", a prototypical TKK track mixing electro-industrial and Chicago house music, but doing it particularly well.
Fortunately, unlike so many other underwhelming TKK records, the rest of this one doesn't disappoint (for the most part). Overall, this album goes farther than usual for the group in pushing their schmaltzy exotica/spy music affections, like on "The International Sin Set" and "A Martini Built for Two". The album certainly isn't perfect: "Mystery Babylon" is a bit too laid back, and just barely crosses the line into easy listening. And the title track is more or less a non-song, a nondescript beat peppered with assorted vocal samples that starts nowhere and goes nowhere, hurting the flow of the album and sounding like the filler it is. (Check out the similar dead spot title track on GWAR's AMERICA MUST BE DESTROYED album, for another example of this. What is it with the year 1991, that bands couldn't avoid making these things?)
In the end, the bright spots outweigh the dumb spots for TKK on this record. Their sound really isn't for everyone, not because it's too outrageous but because it's oftentimes just too silly, but if they can be said to have a best album, this is probably it.
