The Prize Fighter Inferno - My Brothers Blood Machine
Reviewed by dcsfinest
Maybe The Prize Fighter Inferno, the pet project of Coheed and Cambria’s Claudio Sanchez, would be a little cooler if Ben Gibbard and The Postal Service hadn’t beaten it to the punch. On My Brother’s Blood Machine, Sanchez's work comes off as nothing more than knock off of the electronically infectious masterpiece-duo orchestrated by Gibbard, who is still better known for the wildly popular Deathcab For Cutie. My Brother’s Blood Machine is a boring mix of techno beats, acoustic riffs and thematic gibberish. A few tracks, like the bizzaro Prince tribute “The Margetville Dance,” actually work fairly well. But on the whole, this is a pretty average attempt by an otherwise promising artist at a lame conceptual side project. [www.theprizefighterinferno.com]
