"Pitbull Daycare" are unique indeed. Pulling together the sound of 90's electronica, a la "Prodigy," with the hard aggressive beats of "Ministry," and sampling styles of "Nine Inch Nails," all grounded by the technique of "Front 242." Yet, it goes beyond that. "Pitbull Day Care" are nothing short of a true experimental band on the edge of a technological age.

"Six Six Sex" explores imagery both vivid and immediate. Offering many different shades and colors on a single digital landscape. What makes this record stand out beyond the many other industrial/electronica releases that have come down the proverbial pipe, is that "Pitbull Day Care" manage to get true human emotion into the cold hard stylings of their electronic based music. Key songs on the disc are "Voices. . .In My Head," "Slut" and "By The Way." However, the record should really be listened to as a whole, since it is a complete work. Each song weaves into the next, tying the entire record together as a stand alone entity.

T.C. Connally (guitar/sampling/programming), Stephen Bishop (vocals), Donnie Van Stavern (guitar/vocals/programming) and Efrain Galica (drums) have truly created a break through in industrial music, combining the human condition with machine precision and accuracy, while still maintaining color, texture and feeling. "Six Six Sex" is nothing less then an innovators masterpiece.
