Title: Fear
Format: CD
Label: self-released
Rated: * * * * *
Three years after releasing "In The Cube" on Rage In Eden label, Compulsive Shopping Disorder are back with a new self produced album titled FEAR. Mastered by Martin Bowes of Attrition, the new album finds the Polish trio dealing with seven new tracks which compared to the old ones sound more e.b.m. influenced. The album starts with an obsessive minimal industrial electronic track titled "Endless night". With this one, Compulsive Shopping Disorder, set the atmosphere for the whole album composing an hypnotic industrial electronic suite made of synth pads and minimal melodies. The track prepares the listener to "The riddle", a tune based on rhythm / melody repetitions with whispered vocals and warm synth pad lines. In balance between nightmarish atmospheres and energetic mid tempo e.b.m. riffs the album offers also a dancey track that could please the lovers of early K.K. era: "Cold corridor". Alternating cinematic atmospheres and minimal wave intuitions the band succeed into giving life to their cold despair... "I want to forget and fall in your arms / fear is coming back".
