V.E.G.A. - Cocaine

V.E.G.A. - Cocaine "Cocaine" is a very confounding album with very powerful music at times and which goes completely, maybe even wilfully, against expectations. I'm not too sure myself about the final track, it is definitely a pivotal track, but the styles of music featured seem rather dated (to me anyway) and even a bit comical. There may very well be intended humour here. There is not much atmosphere in this piece that would bring out the fear or awe or other feelings of the addict undergoing annihilation. Apart from my reservations, this is a compelling recording that, once you start listening past its first screech, grabs and, holding you against your will, mercilessly subjects you to the pain, anguish and darkness of the human subconscious in thrall to addiction or obsession.
