Ego Malfunction is a successful five-piece band from Slovenia, which introduces us a high-grade music through its full-length album entitled "Perspectrum Over-Ride". The album is self-financed, consisting of twelve stunning tracks whose goal according to my slant, is to keep the state of melancholy away from the people's heart whereas its music reflects a lot of liveliness. I'd say stylistically this band performs a heavy-oriented music; nothing exactly like Heavy Metal though. Otherwise, describing a real style for this band has been a hard task to me. Perhaps the word "originality" is the most correct form to describe the music proposed by this puzzling band. Nevertheless I may further say the sound is great. As usual, most of the heavy-oriented bands are led by the guitars, thus becoming the most prominent instrument among the others. In this case, it happens as well to the music of Ego Malfunction when introducing widely a bunch of thundering guitars all along. The album also displays otherwise, a remarkable instrumentation when featuring a solid bass playing; corking keyboards, and also vibrant percussions, which have been often interplaying harmoniously with the drums. Concerning the vocals, the songs are sung in English. I think personally that it would be great if they were introduced under the musicians' native language so that the listeners could have the chance of experiencing quite an exotic language. In spite of it, the album still enchants my ear. I didn't pick out any highlight on the album this time because I saw no reason for doing so, whereas the tracks are equally in step. The musicians involved in this project so far are: Mirsi - Drums, Thierno Diallo - Bass, RR - Guitar, Jason G - Vocals, Vanja Novak - Keyboards, Marijan Stanic - Percussion and Emanuela Montanic & Boris Kandare - additional Vocals. This album is highly recommended!...  (Comments By Sergio Motta)

When I heard this cd for the first time I was surprised, because I couldn't believe that this is a band from Slovenia. It was the most strange and whole sound that I haven't heard for a long time. It's like Jimi Hendrix would play Bach's Goldberg variations with Tom York's creativity. You can hear the freedom of every life burdon, the joy of making music and creating something special and unique.
