I'm not especially into Indus music but I like some bands like Ministry and I'm proud to introduce today a new band from France which will maybe become a reference in the genre if they follow the way that they've taken with their first release "Fragmentation". Yes definitely this first release is full of good things and I think that the Indus fans should have a look at it as soon as possible.

Big riffs, blasting rhythms, electronic sounds and of course a really dark and tortured voice are the main ingredients of the recipe of the music of Dexy Corp_. The good thing here is that the songs are hypnotic (that's normal for Indus) but never too repetitive and this variation can be really pleasant for someone who is not too much into this genre. Don't worry this is real Indus and the fans of the genre will not find something too influenced by other Metal genres but I really think that a basic metalhead who is not afraid of electronic sound but who is not yet into Indus will have the possibility to enjoy the genre through this release. The songs are heavy and loud, dark and oppressing and the general "metallic" ambiance is just excellent but it's not boring and the fact that some songs can be fast like some other can be mid-tempo is one other interesting point of the album. "Fragmentation" is not linear!

The musicians are solid and I really like the voice of Doctorkrank_ who is a classy Indus singer. It can be a bit whiny on a side but it fits perfectly to the genre and gives a cool crazy and distressed orientation to the songs. With a nice production, "Fragmentation" is a really nice album which is maybe not super original and inventive but which is good for a first try.

"Fragmentation" is a good surprise in the genre. As you know I'm not a specialist of the genre but I know what Indus is and first this is Indus and two, this is more than enjoyable! If you like Ministry or KMFDM I think that you should have a look at this release. Don't forget that it's a young band though but it's already a respectful one which will do good things in the future. If you like Indus, Dexy Corp_ is a name that you'll have to remember, the best is coming for them without a doubt.
