aus-three In my opinion the more underrated album of the trilogy, I find it's NARC remix best of them all with it's pacing and such, and hearing SKULjammer for the first time ever made me actually kinda headbang :) Favorite track: SKULjammer.

N.B.ACE I bought the vinyl of this album. The vinyl only track Iron Fist is a masterful work that truly speaks to the artistic style of Mega Drive. It is such a well composed track. The whole album is worth it. May be the best of the XAD series. Favorite track: Active Denial System.

vekilos The continuation of Mega Drive's acid inspired sound, but still within the nebulous darksynth industrial space. The next in this series 20XX shows some trance influences without sacrificing what makes Mega Drive great! 199XAD is adventurous, epic, and solid.

about

In 2014, Mega Drive released the visionary 198XAD, a darkly cybernetic piece of audio horror that quickly became a cult classic. The recording found spots on lists of the best dark synthwave albums and earned respect from critics, fans, and creators alike. Not content to rest on past successes, Mega Drive proceeded to push into new and increasingly diverse ideas on subsequent releases. For five years, 198XAD stood as a unique and unrivaled sci-fi creation at the origin point of synthwave’s dark side.

Now, Mega Drive has returned to the dystopian world of his most acclaimed work with a direct sequel, 199XAD.

Fans will immediately be drawn back into the densely woven, detailed environment of the original, as Mega Drive displays an impressive versatility across 12 exceptional tracks. Each one offers a glimpse into a different corner of Mega Drive’s inspired vision of the retrofuture, as 199XAD expertly shifts from the searing artillery fire of "Gun Hag" to patiently atmospheric and cinematic pieces like "Terror Eyes."

The result will thrill long-time Mega Drive fans and revive memories of 199XAD’s epic predecessor while those who are new to the artist will find the latest album to be the perfect jumping-on point. 199XAD promises to be one of Mega Drive’s most highly regarded and talked about recordings yet.
