The Prize Fighter Inferno - My Brother's Blood Machine

Photobucket

For my first post, I chose the CD My Brother's Blood Machine, by The Prize Fighter Inferno. This group is a side project of Claudio Sanchez, who also sings and plays guitar for Coheed & Cambria. This CD is very different than Coheed would be. In my opinion, you wouldn't be able to tell this had any connection to Coheed whatsoever if Claudio's voice wasn't so distinctive. Actually, the only other way you could connect this CD to Coheed is by the STORY. Yes folks, this album is a concept album too, much like every Coheed and Cambria CD in existence. Claudio himself describes the story as so:

Long-arm and Butchie Bleam brothers brought together by physical distortion and social seclusion are about to find themselves in the running for the most unusual job in the world.....DEATH! Listen to the story unfold as we follow these two misunderstood yet maniacal minstrels of macabre in a neverending race for ultimate power. Listen to the disturbing details as the songs takes you through the hell that is the Blood Machine. This is a story being told in song......this is hell being unleashed through love and sound...... I am the hitchhiker doomed to tell the tale of Margretville, I am your Guide, I am the Prizefighter Inferno.

This CD has a very unique sound to it, apart from being recorded over the course of years using "..random recording devices" the way this CD mixes Electronica and Acoustic/Folk is something unexpected, yet very nice to listen to. Some Cons to this CD is that sometimes the music can fade, and you might not pay attention to it after a while. But nonetheless, this CD makes good background music too. I think you'll be happy with it.

This is a beautiful concept album. I've been an avid fan of Coheed & Cambria since 2004 and I have not looked back since. I have all the graphic novels, comics and albums from Shabutie to Year of the Black Rainbow. I'm waiting for the sixth studio album to be released this year. Till then, I'm still in love with Amberlina, the Prise......
