Ready Fire Am This Changes Nothing Album Info

For fans of acts like Nine Inch Nails and Depeche Mode, this group Ready Fire Aim (aka Sage Rader and Stakka) should be right up your alley. Think melancholy lyrics set to twisted, industrial-esque sounds with a better sheen and polish. The reason I am initially drawn to this is because of Stakka's DnB history, having done loads of forward-thinking neuro DnB cuts with Skynet under various names and on various labels (their album Clockwork is a classic), as well as his recent album Deep with DJ DB under the moniker Ror-Shak. With Sage's background as a poet, author, actor, political commentator and other fields lending some heavy lyrics to the mix, this is something you fans of the aforementioned styles of Rock shouldn't miss. Peep out the tracklist:

1. “End Of Over”
2. “Wannabe Your”
3. “Beautiful Thing”
4. “Welcome Home”
5. “So Fine”
6. “As If It Were That Easy”
7. “I Would For You”
8. “Laff It Up”
9. “Happy Love Song”
10. “Shouldn't Oughta”
11. “Better You Than Me”
12. “Lush But Dark”

In listening to the album, it varies in styles: for every dark track like "End Of Over", you get a boppin' 80's synth cut like "Beautiful Thing". It's all over, touching on IDM, a bit of the New Order-sounding club tracks, and each track is thick with rich emotion from Sage on the vocals.

As a bonus treat, check out this Plus Move remix of "So Fine", via RCD LBL.

This Changes Nothing is in stores on May 27th on Expansion Team Records.
