Crystal clear production and interesting arrangements.

"I really like this album and I think the intent of the musician is somewhat more involved than the lyrics would have you believe. I think he is railing against the church and how it has distorted and destroyed whatever purity there was about the early Christian movement.
Musically, the horror film samples work well next to the distorted vocals. The synths sound fantastic and the percussion has a nice amount of grainy distortion added so that the tracks are rarely boring, if at all - they pound, scream and soar through the average sonic boundary.
I agree with Virus mag's review in that this album is not the most original thing out there, but the concept of the album is interesting and keeps it all pieced together. There's nothing bad about this album per se, but nothing really grabs my attention as being too exciting in terms of originality.
Nevertheless, a good album for fans of dark electro/industrial/terror EBM."

"I picked up this album at a record store and had no idea what it was going to sound like. When I got in my car and popped it into the CD player, I was hooked from the first track. The production is impressive. The music of Distorted Memory is definitly along the lines of spooky industrial elecronica (EBM). The lyrics are all about religion and why it sucks. I love the song "Sweet Evil", and "Confession" most of all. Lyrics like "redemption for your sins denied, a life of hatred, scorn, and lies"...should help give you an idea of artist's direction. This is a verry aggressive Industrial dance album that borders on violence. Fans of Psyclon Nine, Suicide Cammando, and Grendel won't be dissapointed. I consider this to be one of the best Electronic-Industrial albums of 2007."
A nice suprise!

"I didn't think that this was ganna be an album that I would enjoy, but I got to hear it all the way through and I think it's actually excelent. It's a brutal anti-christian Industrial/EBM band that is shure to please any fan of Suicide Cammando. Verry good production, includes a cool photo of the artist and all the lyrics."
