METHODS OF MAYHEM  Methods of Mayhem

Former Motley Crew drummer Tommy Lee released his new group's debut album last year. Like the group, it was called METHODS OF MAYHEM. Fans of the movement "learn to swim" and Alexander Sklyar will probably be pleased- MoM- is another brutal, bull-terrier synthesis of heavy metal and rap. The model, known from examples such as LIMP BIZKIT, KID ROCK, RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE, isn't foreign to us either- we have IFK and the like. The appearance, and, judging by the responses, its success, testifies that the world of "vicious alternative sounds" is developing rapidly. Then again, the rap components of this album lag in quality and energy behind all the other musical components- electric, guitar, and DJ work. Currently, the group is on tour (their notices can be found here).
