Kommando XY, "Genesis Does (What Nintendon't)"


OH RAD! Old school EBM stylists Kommando XY have a track on their debut album Welcome to Gestrikland that sings the vocoded praises of the Sega Genesis! Named for one of Sega's delighful slogans from the early nineties (pre-dating the release of the SNES I think) the track shouts out numerous beloved Sega franchises like Alex Kidd, Wonderboy and Golden Axe. It's pretty silly, but for the faithful like yours truly it's also a loving tribute to one of the great consoles of yesteryear. The rest of the album is pretty hot, it delivers on the promise of old school DAF style EBM that bands like Spetsnaz have largely squandered.
