Lost in Babyland
BABYLAND AT CHAIN REACTION IN ANAHEIM / SATURDAY FEBRUARY 26TH
By Orren Merton

Babyland has been playing their crossover-hardcore harsh electro dance music for a long enough time to have it down to a T. Even with the equipment and power problems, they still manage to put on a kinetic, high-energy show. Babyland uses heavy pulsing synths and live percussion ranging from saws to metal pipes to excellent effect, and their two-man live show carries more punch than many bands with three times their membership. The crowd, ranging from pubescent punks to older rockers, goths, and everything in-between, obviously loved their performance. After opening bands that left many of the audience livid, Babyland served as a rousing climax to the evening.
