Dataseed and New Religion

I just received Cut.Rate.Box's 'Dataseed' and 'New Religion' album from Amazon. The former seems promising.

Cut.Rate.Box is an electro-industrial band that is based in New Orleans and has previously opened for Beborn Beton, Covenant, VNV Nation and more.

Behind the Wheel is, of course, an electro-industrial cover of the Depeche Mode classic. There are so many good American industrial bands these days. Flesh Field, Lost Signal, Assemblage 23, The Azoic, Imperative Reaction, etc.

How do you like this version of "Behind The Wheel"? Does it do it justice?

Well, I like God Module's cover of Little Fifteen better. This one is an interesting interpretaton but it lacks that 'impending doom' feel of the DM origin.
