The use of instruments to create industrial sounds is something that I find incredibly interesting and a great skill, and watching Front Line Assembly construct this music for a live audience was incredible. They have such a unique sound, where they play sample pads, incorporate elements of Electronic Body Music, and vocals to create their sound. Although the members of the band have changed extensively over the years, their sound maintains it’s fresh and intended original quality. The difference seeing them live to other electronic groups, is that they actually play instruments on stage rather than solely DJ-ing. They manipulate their synth, sample pad, and kaoss pad to create their desired sounds. Bill Leeb absolutely rocked it on the drums throughout the show, and was great at keeping the band together as a unit.
They were great at getting the audience hyped up and on their side, and Rhs Fuulber kept shouting out for everyone to dance and join in with the lyrical sections of their set. They were great performers as well as musicians, and it was evident that they were totally invested in every second of their show.
