AMG Review of The Curse of the Golden Vampire
John Bush
All Music GuideThough both acts have little trouble producing excellent work on their own, the collaboration between Empire and Techno Animal comes off as a distinct disappointment. The Curse of the Golden Vampire takes each act's trademark -- industrial breakbeats and darkside dub soundscapes, respectively -- and merely blends them together, resulting in a project which sounds as though separate studios were used for recording. Fans of either Empire or Techno Animal will obviously enjoy the sound, but few promises are actually delivered.
