A new self-released CD of this talented Swedish duo is out now, and – I can say this in advanced – it passes all expectations. Special limited available from their website, this edition looks like a 7 " vinyl single and features 6 new tracks, 3 remixed and revamped versions plus some various previews. This band has developed a lot since their last CD "B-Sides 0" and "The Sixth Extinction". Their songs now go mostly direct from the ears to the brain into the body, they’ve won a more straighter attitude. This CD opens with the title track, an instrumental and dark melodic piece filled with some Russian voice samples. "Continuation" sets the first mark and already with this track it gets conspicuous, how linear the band now produces their track. There is a hypnotic effect behind their synth play and bass lines, and I recommend a good pair of headphones to recognize the rich and detailed musically content behind this new pieces. It is nice to see that all following songs share this ideal and do not fall down in quality. "Clairvoyance" finally turns into a hefty stomp-feast by focusing on a tougher insert of some rusty drum patterns, but my favorite piece is "We Don’t Walk The Same Path", which simply features all good elements of the band, but it has against to the other pieces here the best worked out melodic content, especially when you listen to the end of this track. After this 6 new tracks follow 2 remix works on both tracks "Continuation" (slows down the tempo and features monotonous bass lines similar to some OBSZÖN GESCHÖPF works...) and "Clairvoyance" (less aggressive, it lays more concentration on the musically content...), and both offer welcomed alternative views of this tracks. Next to some preview works we have a revamped 2006 version of the track "My Friend Disorder", originally taken from "The Sixth Extinction" CD to conclude this CD.
I also don’t wanna say nothing about the fact that I could receive a special bonus album called "Prologue: Death’s Dance" featuring 4 extra tracks and the title track in two different versions. So make sure to check out the given details on the website of this band, they offer real friendship packages featuring all of their products to a fair price. Friends of Dark Electro/EBM will make their contact to purchase stuff from this up and coming act from Sweden.
