In my book, albums get points based on how creative the sound is and how well auditory satisfaction is achieved. Lesser Know Condition’s first ep- Red Eternal- is what I would call experimental rock that blends the crunchy guitar licks of White Zombie with Devo-esque vocals. Certainly this approach is new and innovative and surprisingly successful.

The music itself is enjoyable. The hooks are enough to make you at least nod your head. This cd could easily be put on in a club and make people dance but still it remains fundamentally rock. The lyrics aren’t too esoteric or a ballad of fucked up youth, so that’s cool too. Lesser Known Condition seems to have grip with mainstream culture but who doesn’t these days.

Overall the cd is worth a listen. Basically if you dig Marilyn Manson, White Zombie, Static X, Deadsy or even Orgy you will dig this album.
