Under Control, the first single from Freeland’s new artist album on Marine Parade in June, demonstrates the infamous producer/DJ decisively soldering club-friendly grooves with raw musical interplay, announced immediately in the martial drums/bass stomp that opens the song. “Under Control” , the first song on the album, featuring Kurt Baumann’s vocals— the haunting, distinctively powerful voice of new discovery who will serve as front man for Freeland’s eponymous new touring band. Meanwhile, Spinnerette / Distillers guitarist Tony Bevilacqua ignites incendiary guitar angles as counterpoint to the kinda jaded lyrics, Marilyn Manson/NIN cohort Twiggy Ramirez lays down a driving, ominous bassline, and DEVO legend Jerry Casale provides background vocals. Filled with paranoiac, satirical wordplay and skewed political commentary that complements the futuristic yet dissident sonics, complements the futuristic yet dissident sonics.
