The Rattler Proxy  - Death Machine

The Rattler Proxy, a sonic duo from Athens, Greece, release their second single featuring two original songs - ''Company of Wolves'' and ''Death Machine'' - along with two remixes of the latter by Antoni Maiovvi and Jokers Of The Scene.

Drawing influences from the likes of Suicide and the dark and synth-heavy soundtrack work of John Carpenter, The Rattler Proxy explore the realm of urban alienation through intense and claustrophobic soundscapes. Often swapping their pulsating electronic crawl, for digital rockabilly-esque freak-outs, theirs is a world of back alleys and gang laden imagery, a rhythmic decent into a hellish, concrete landscape.

''Death Machine'' is a lush electronic bossa ode to serial killer Richard ''The Night Stalker'' Ramirez, while ''Company of Wolves'' is a hyperactive stomper that runs with the pack. Antoni Maiovvi's teutonic reinterpretation of ''Death Machine'' is a brooding hair raiser that will make you look over your shoulder more than once, while the Jokers Of The Scene deliver a dark balearic epic that stretches out to 9 minutes and 53 seconds

''Death Machine'' is issued by Lurid Music. The 12'' is hand-stenciled, hand-stamped and hand-numbered in a limited edition of 300 white & silver spray-painted record sleeves.
