For those who don't know, Body Clock is the solo work of Controlled Bleeding's Chris Moriarity (with some help from his friends). Overall, Body Clock treads the same ground as C.B.'s Trudge album while occasionally venturing off into dancey tracks and sonic soundscapes. The album starts off with chugging thrash metal guitars, distorted vocals ala` Skrew, and slowly works its way into somewhat ambient pieces like "Pensive World", gothish piano songs ("Desolation"), and sound collages that made his main project famous ("Retrogress"). While the breadth and width of this project is quite remarkable, the wholly different stylistic aspects make for a very schizophrenic listen. The keyboard/synth mood pieces will put you in one mindframe and the following track's metallic/industrial assault will upset that balance. However, that is what CD programmability is all about.
