Straight Razor – Casualty
Straight Razor (Omar Doom)’s “Casualty” is a dynamic mix of EBM beats, dramatic vocals, and dynamic production that looks like raw and sophisticated. The song begins with distorted, hard-hitting beats that catch the listener’s attention, putting them in a cool industrial environment. Omar’s vocal style, influenced by Gary Numan, adds a melancholic depth to the song, presenting almost apocalyptic scenarios with each phrase. The synth work is one of the track’s advantages, with interesting FM synth-driven patterns that pulse beneath the surface. The softness of the synthesizers contrasts strongly with the fast, cymbal-heavy percussion, which has an almost organic character like a live recording. The mix between electronic sounds and a more physical, percussive sound offers “Casualty” a unique edge, combining groovy energy with a sophisticated atmosphere. Omar’s cinematic vocal style acts as the bridge, connecting the track’s thematic conflict between adaptation and casualty in the modern world. As a consequence, the music is both inspiring and musically interesting, taking listeners on a philosophical trip while keeping them moving to the beat.
