The Apex Theory – Random Burst

The Apex Theory
Artist: The Apex Theory
Title: Random Burst
Label: Dreamworks
Rating: 7.5/10

The Apex Theory has a sound that may seem unique, but when you put together all of the pieces, it’s increasingly familiar. You only have to look at the man who mixed it and Alan Moulder’s previous experiments, such as Nine Inch Nails and A Perfect Circle.

Luckily, The Apex Theory really try their best to be their own men. “Apossibly” is nasty and nice. But the conversational “Shhh…” got annoying fast, no matter how good the chorus. Then they hit you again with the blistering “Bravo”. “Bullshed” is quite gorgeous in a disturbing way.

The more you listen to Random Bursts, the more depth you notice. Even when it all seems to be on the surface, you can go back and find things you didn’t discover the first few listens. The Apex Theory has a lot to offer. Be prepared.
