Review by Shadowdoom9 (Andi) for Neurotech - Unreleased Demos (2011 - 2016) (2020)

Neurotech reformed in 2020 and had a new album ready for release the next year. Before that, Wulf released an EP of unused demos from the first part of his career. No second paragraph, let's get right on it!

"Hope is Better than a Memory" is a good start. "Trust to Display" is definitely worth loving. "Cut the Cord" is a fun cyber metal tune that you might just want more of. "Ectogenesis" can make an instant classic, and it's from the epic Stigma era! I think the catch melody was reused in "The Ophidian Symphony" sometime after the recording. "Coda" is the one odd track out. Maybe it should've been released as a separate single instead of right after another instrumental track in this EP. It's still good though.

It's quite great hearing what Wulf made within the 10-year initial part of his Neurotech career that didn't see the light of day until this EP's release. It's a solid transcending blast before his true comeback in Solace....
