What a great return! When you get a new album of Crowbar, of course you know what you'll get. They just can't disappoint. Also, it's their first album since their deubt album from 1991 where no single song has the 3rd chorus.rNext thing I really like is the album artwork, my favourite of them so far in that aspect.

ESC (Eden Synthetic Corps) Gold2.0
Much worse than their first 3 albums (which range from very good (Matte and Eight Thousand Square Feet) to wonderful (Enhancer).

Don't know what happened to them on "Gold", song structures are much lighter more pop-like, I don't like it. A shame because I like the album artwork, especially the golden half.

Well I still am thankful this is another dark electro / aggrotech band with 2 or more great albums I have.

2018
Oresund Space Collective Kybalion4.0
Neuroticfish Antidoron5.0
what a great discovery and this album will accompany me through my favourite season autumn / fall.
A futurepop artist who releases his best album ever in 2018, after existing for over 20 years is
very rare, and I really love Les Chansons Neurotiques (2002) and Gelb (2005) is solid.rBut the
grey november-like atmosphere on Antidoron is something I really enjoy and I love to get lost into
this album. One of my favourite discovered albums of 2019.

edit from september the 28th: Congratulations to Antidoron! It's number 4 in my new list and I
hope this album will be honoured many more times. Looking forward to late december there will be a
top discoveries list from 2019!!
Coma Alliance Weapon Of Choice4.0
Eyeless In Gaza (UK) Winter Sang4.0
VNV Nation Noire2.0
This album started very promising with nice song structures, but what happened from Immersed on
really got me extremely angry. All songs from that song on suddenly got weaker and weaker, as if
Ronan just didn't care anymore and he throws everything that had potential away.
Predictable as hell with a lame and tired 3 chorus routine.

I want this album to get out of my face. There are at least around 40 futurepop albums that are
much better structured than this. Matter + Form, Futureperfect and Empires will always be the big
3 of VNV to me. Especially the first two mentioned are still among the best of the genre.

It's really incredible that they managed to follow up the immense Love Of Cartography with an
album like this. I tried to go into this album with as little expectation as possible, only
checked it out after more than half a year after LoC.

While LoC ruled everything in 2020 when I discovered it (And I discovered many amazing albums btw)
this year Made Of Breath Only did the same and is on first place in my 2021 list, followed by
bands like Daylight Dies (Dismantling Devotion) etc.

I love the glacial and frosty atmosphere on the album. What a journey this album is!

edit:

yes while of course it's not a perfect album by any means I had to bump it up from 4.5 to 5.0
(Love Of Cartography has the same rating since 5 days after I discovered it in 2020) because the
world it takes me to is just too immense and beautiful. I still just can't get over those 2
albums, at least in my world they're classics. Now I need to check out their 1st one at some
point.

Radian On Dark Silent Off4.5
Like all the releases before this album Radian once more proved they're worthy to be one of my top
6 all time favourite bands. Their mix of post-rock & IDM is amazing and all 48 songs I have of
them so far are great.
I like that they have their own unique way of how they make music. It's great to get lost into
their albums.
Steve Hauschildt Strands3.0
Crowbar The Serpent Only Lies4.0
Eyeless In Gaza (UK) Sun Blues4.5
I'm really glad I downloaded this album for 9,99 euro on amazon after I thought about it for a few
days. Eyeless In Gaza are one of my all time top 4 bands and so far I had 8 albums of them. After
the second listen Sun Blues exploded, suddenly I love all the songs on it.


All the small details like the electronic sounds, the bass guitar, the sax which in one song
sounds like a seagull, add to the atmosphere that I really feel.


The first releases were in 1980, this is 36 years later and this album can easily hold its own
against their best albums. I didn't expect that, and it proves that good albums are worth much
more than 9 euro (I'm from germany) because they can stay with you for the rest of your life.
Diorama Zero Soldier Army4.0
Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds Skeleton Tree4.5
And Also The Trees Born Into The Waves4.5
Cypecore Identity2.0
Mad Essence Rehumanization4.0
Rotersand Capitalism TM2.0
It started good with the first 2 songs, then of course all went downhill with the songs after it
which are too predictable for Rotersand's standards. This was the first album in 7 years after the
great Random Is Resistance (the 3 before were also amazing) and I wasn't mentally able to get
through this piece of garbage.

It's the same as it was with VNV Nation - Noire, both began very well but the following songs
destroy everything. I will always love Rotersand's first 4 albums but this one here, I will never
listen to it again.

Tonikom Seeking the Lost Mind4.0
It's always a great feeling when I just discovered another nice IDM album from an artist I didn't
know until then.

Atmosphere-wise it's another futuristic subway station IDM album, like for example Subheim -
Approach, Integral - Rise, Totakeke - The Things That Disappear... and Architect - Consume Adapt
Create, I adore those.

This one by Tonikom was quite easy to get into and it's a journey of slightly over 1 hour.

Just as with those 4 mentioned albums there is not a single song on it I don't like or that I
would usually skip. I love coming back to IDM albums from time to time just to get sucked into its
atmosphere and leave reality for hours.
Lunatic Soul Walking on a Flashlight Beam5.0
Excellent album for november and even more for december, it's now 9 years since I discovered it and it still hasn't lost any of its magic. I just completely feel the atmosphere in every of the 9 songs. If only Stars Sellotaped was 3-4 minutes longer, it's wonderful but too short. That's the only negative thing I can say about this album.

As always I don't care about other people's opinions (I don't even look at their lists), this album is a classic in my music world. This is just a wonderful album to get lost in.

Of course it's not a perfect album, but "classic" albums don't need to be perfect to be "classic".
Electric Orange Volume 104.0
Integral Sercosa3.5
sleepmakeswaves Love of Cartography5.0
After only 5 days of listening this album has made it to "classic" and I feel it will never
change. The magic will never fade. This brings me to another planet where this album is legendary,
sold millions and the first 2 songs on it were number one singles.
The planet is more progressive, peaceful and optimistic, and the night sky always is a mix of
black, purple and dark blue, it's also roughly 24 hours a day but
there it's always cold, late autumn-like with only 6 hours of daylight
Here a song rating (only the 8 main songs):

1. Perfect Detonator 5.0
2. Traced In Constellations 5.0
3. Emergent 4.9
4. Great Northern 5.0
5. The Stars Are Stigmata 4.7
6. How We Built The Ocean 4.9
7. Something Like Avalanches 4.8
8. Your Time Will Come Again 5.0

I can't believe it myself but that's really how I rate the songs, might be one of my highest rated
albums ever (9.8 of 10)
Entheogenic Enthymesis5.0
So far I had their self-titled first album, Spontaneous Illumination and Dreamtime Physics. I wanted a 4th great album of them. Alas Flight Of The Urubus still has not convinced me enough. Then I checked out this album here two days ago. I was very surprised, everything sounds great and on its right place. The acoustic guitar, the voices and especially all the electronic sounds.rThis is by far their most spacey sounding album, but still psychedelic. I did not expect this to be that overwhelming but it is. Sometimes it is hard to hold the tears back because I can't believe this album exists.

qebrus ⊶⊑∷⌊∴⊹∵⌉∷⊒⊷4.0
Autistici Beneath Peaks4.0
This album deserves a 4.0 rating because it makes you use your imagination and every song has something different to offer. Some songs are perfect to listen to on sunny and warm summer days like Asleep Beneath Nests, Edge Over Millstone View and Peveril's Open Door. Like the other 3 albums it just needs time to unfold, it's hard to love it after only one listen.
Yellowcard Southern Air2.5
Too pop-like for me. Always the same predictable 3 chorus routine on every song. It would have
been much better balanced if every second song would be less predictable with more unexpected
twists thrown in.
But it seems they're doing the same over and over again. The way this album is it just gets
tedious too quickly. The lyrics can be amazing all they want, it's not enough to save it for me.

Eyeless In Gaza (UK) Butterfly Attitude3.5
Gojira L'Enfant Sauvage4.5
Celldweller Wish Upon a Blackstar4.0
Mystical Sun 260005.0
a well deserved 4.5 from me. This album is like a big adventure, a journey into a jungle. "Whirlpool" is when you get there, "Place Of Refuge" when you discover a sea in there, "Immersion" when you swim and wash yourself in there and the waterfall nearby. "Canopy" is when you discover a great view at a cliff.
Tor Lundvall The Shipyard4.5
Really a wonderful album. Lovely atmosphere. Sometimes rainy sometimes foggy but never sunny.
I really like his other album "Sleeping And Hiding" where he sings on all the songs (but without
choruses thankfully, the lyrics fit nicely) but albums like The Shipyard are nice places / worlds
to dive into and get lost in them.

Next to the 9 songs from this album I also found 2 bonus songs which are excellent as well,
especially "The Shipyard In Winter" is adorable
(they're on his bandcamp for example).

It's always great when you can visit all kinds of places and worlds without leaving your room.

Pelican Ataraxia/Taraxis3.5
Atoma Skylight4.5
I'm glad someone recommended me this album after I loved the icy / frosty atmosphere in "Antares"
by Sybreed. This album is even colder. Everything is coated in ice, the keyboards and synths, even
the drums and the guitar.


I can never get enough of icy cold music, no matter which genre (ambient, some early 80's post-
punk and new wave or metal). For over 14 days already does this album rule my music world together
with Sybreed - Antares. This is why I love discovering bands and albums.

Will definitely check this out. I love Alva Noto and Robert Lippok's Redsuperstructure. Both were
from the raster noton label which doesn't exist anymore, but the website still does and I'm
looking through the releases right now. Neuschnee and Helix sound promising so far!

Integral The Past Is My Shadow4.5
This is amazing stuff! Loving their first one "Rise" for over a year and 9 months already, this
one here has a different, darker atmosphere, and an immense sound palette compared to Rise.

It's over 2 hours long, but it never gets boring, every of the 18 songs has something that makes
it stand out. It is a whole new world for me to explore, vast futuristic landscapes everywhere,
fascinating adventures I will have with this album. This is why I love discovering IDM, psybient &
ambient albums, just when you think you have heard everything, there is something new around the
corner.

Also, it's not electronic-only, some organic instruments do appear too in many songs.
Florence and the Machine Ceremonials3.5
Magazine No Thyself4.5
This deserves a better rating than 3.3. Maybe 3.8 or 3.9 would be more fair. This album isn't less
great than their first two albums. I still love the clever song structures in most songs.

For me it is better than "The Correct Use Of Soap" because that album was too light for me
sometimes, but it still had great lyrics.
Lunatic Soul Impressions3.5
I really can't understand some people. I am always one for atmosphere and this is not boring to me. Maybe some people just don't have imagination.

Die Sektor Applied Structure In A Void4.0
My first album of them. Had to check it out because I love the album cover. I like how every song has many small little details and sounds, sometimes even glitch influenced. In some of the more introverted sounding songs the atmosphere can be even dreamy and melancholic. Finally another great harsh electro album (my last one, Maldire by Velvet Acid Christ is an almost-classic to me).

Androcell Entheomythic2.5
Wynardtage A Flicker Of Hope4.5
A really underrated album by Wyn. Deserves a 4.0 from me because there are many enjoyable songs on
it. A Flicker Of Hope, White Frost, We Can Carry A Lot and the haunting Closer are up there with
his best songs he ever did.


Some harsh electro artists will always play an important role in my music world, for example
Fractured, Wynardtage, earlier Aesthetic Perfection, IWR, Some X-Fusion, Hocico, Die Sektor, ESC
(Eden Synthetic Corps), First 3 Heimataerde albums and Velvet Acid Christ, also Tactical Sekt,
Life Cried, Asphyxia, Distatix, Unter Null, Distorted Memory, Dawn Of Ashes, Suicide Commando,
Deadjump

Favourite songs on this album:

1. White Frost / Closer
3. We Can Carry A Lot / A Flicker Of Hope
5. Solitude
6. The Fall (feat. Unter Null)
7. Deep Red (feat. Damian Dior) / Taste This Rush
9. Blindfold (feat. Mel) / Alive / Slow The Tide

No Hurricane Age because that song was always on Praise The Fallen album (2007) but it's a great
song there.

Namnambulu Distances3.5
The songs themselves are good. The lyrics often weak, too often he sings about love, to get
someone back. The vocals are technically good, but often the singer is over-singing. Futurepop
doesn't need to be extremely emotional vocals-wise, it doesn't really fit. I know maybe 20
futurepop artists I like more, but the album will grow, at least many of the songs.

Favourite songs: Pause (I like how he sings on that song), Deception
Zeller Turbulences4.0
SAM Brainwasher3.5
Cyanotic The Medication Generation4.0
Oneohtrix Point Never Returnal4.0
Why should I care about when someone says this album doesn't sound original or Daniel uses too
many influences like sounds of Klaus Schulze for example, or that it sounds too similar to other
artists. Listening to this album again right now and after many years it's still as great as after
the first listen. Nice colours everywhere, great atmosphere to get lost in.


I enjoy it for what it is, a very good atmospheric electronic album. People should stop caring
about what sounds unoriginal and just enjoy the music and using their imagination to it.
The Flashbulb Arboreal4.0
Tame Impala Innerspeaker4.0
Saturate The Point of No Return4.0
ESC (Eden Synthetic Corps) Eight Thousand Square Feet4.0
This album is on a similar high level as Enhancer. Almost every song enjoyable. Most songs are
well structured, most only 2 choruses. The song with X-Fusion is really good, only disappointment
is the song with [:SITD:]. Too predictable and lazy songwriting. [:SITD:] can do much better with
their own albums.

It can be frustrating sometimes when you look for good dark electro / aggrotech albums, but after
so many years I have amassed many very good albums from this genre.

With futurepop it's a bit easier, because there are bands who don't just make music for clubs but
also songs that are more introspective. f-pop is also more melodic which means they don't have to
rely on choruses that much.

Really great stuff! I'm thankful I dug out this artist after 10 years, all the time I had this
album but never took the time for it.

Amazing sound design, interesting atmospheres, and the tribal elements are still there. Often a
spacey feeling, sometimes futuristic, mixed with middle eastern elements.

Genres: dark ambient, tribal industrial, IDM & glitch (although quite a bit different from most
IDM artists).

just another great ambient album. There are too many amazing atmospheric electronic albums I know. This one takes me far away. While I'm listening to this album nothing can harm or touch me, In my mind I'm in a different place, wonderful and isolated, no one can find me there.rI like that in every song there are sounds that are with me for the whole song, I don't want them to leave me. I wish I could get the vinyl only songs Graupel and Kinematics.
Architect (DE) Consume Adapt Create4.5
Fear Factory Mechanize2.5
Emancipator Safe In The Steep Cliffs4.0
I am glad I dug this album out after years. Most songs have an ethereal feeling, a nice album to
draw something while sitting next to a window, or to listen to while daydreaming. It's an album
that might need multiple listens so that one song after another can unfold itself.

That other user calling this elevator music just has no imagination left in him. I love to let my
imagination run wild while listening to atmospheric electronic albums.r

The Ozrics over the years became my second most favourite band (after And Also The Trees and
before Diorama, Eyeless In Gaza, Radian, Gong, The Chameleons, Shpongle etc.).

From 1988 to 2000 I found 11 amazing albums. Tried many albums from after 2000 but they're
frustrating to listen to because the magic seems to be gone.
Then I checked out The Yum Yum Tree days ago. Maybe THIS is the 12th great album of the Ozrics I
was looking for for years. The songs have more imagination, nice sounds and atmosphere.

Alva Noto Xerrox Vol. 24.5
Another nice ambient album. My first of this artist. I like all songs, only "Xerrox Meta Phaser"
needs to grow on me, that song is very noisy.

Often I have that feeling that I just can't discover enough great atmospheric electronic artists
and albums.rThis album takes me to a sheltered and isolated place where no one can find me.

Favourite songs:

1. Xerrox Phaser Acat 1
2. Xerrox Sora
3. Xerrox Teion & Xerrox Teion Acat
4. Xerrox Monophaser 2
5. Xerrox Soma
6. Xerrox Tek Part 1 / Xerrox Monophaser 1

ESC (Eden Synthetic Corps) Enhancer4.5
Even after over 10 years this album this holds up well, and it's different from many other harsh
electro albums, it has more a spring-like atmosphere than an autumnal one.
And the yellow album artwork looks great and fits perfect with the sounds on the album. More
melodic than other albums of the genre most songs also have nice twists to avoid standard 3 chorus
routines.

Another psybient & psydub gem I checked out today morning at work after Kick Bong - Flower Power.
Both are amazing, once more I'm happy that there are still countless great psybient albums I
didn't know yet.

The album songs of both albums are considerably shorter than on the average psybient album but
they're dynamic, don't need too much time to develop or to start and once again it's a great
adventure to listen to them.

In psybient music it is irrelevant to me how original or innovative an album is, many artists can
sound similar yet they still all sound different, it's a different adventure every time I discover
another album of this genre and
it always helps me feel more positive.

Re:Legion 13 Seconds4.0
I didn't know or expect this band was already on here. Was preparing to add them to the database.

Today I finally dug out this album after more than 10 years. Bought it in 2007 but only listened
to few songs then. Another nice futurepop album with almost all songs avoiding the standard 3
chorus routine.
Ulver Shadows of the Sun4.5
Cue to Recall Polarity4.0
This album really has some great songs on it that takes me back to autumn 2007 (An Endless Case,
Consuming Hearts, In Affect, Strip The Light, Pure Addiction and Pieces). I loved to listen to
them (and other futurepop & dark electro albums) when I got home after 4pm when it already got
dark outside. I love that melancholic feeling.

The cold vocals strongly remind me of Covenant, they're very similar.
Rotersand 10234.0
This album did grow on me years after release. Now I understand it much better. Welcome To Goodbye
is untouchable and still one of the best futurepop albums of all time but I like how they
experiment on 1023. There's an acoustic guitar, trip-hop and ambient influences, the songs are
often slower but I like how they unfold. Songs like I Am With You have nice song structures, after
the 2nd chorus the song takes off and never returns, I love that kind of creativity.
mind.in.a.box Crossroads4.0
Neon Cage Experiment Materials And Methods4.0
Oresund Space Collective The Black Tomato4.5
What an amazing psychedelic album and adventure!
And I am glad both songs before Viking Cleaner are cut into 5 and 3 parts, it's easier for me to
listen to the whole album that way.

I'm extremely thankful I discovered many great psychedelic bands & artists (rock and electronic
like psybient & psydub). Many are hard to find but the ones I have will stay with me for the rest
of my life.
Pride and Fall In My Time of Dying4.5
Acylum Mental Disorder4.0
I'm thankful this album proved as a grower, now I really like 9 or maybe 10 songs on it (and maybe
the last
song Fatal Conclusion, but it's more like an outro).

And most songs with vocals only have 2 choruses, only the song "Rape" is a bit too repetitive,
they could have cut off a minute and the song would be absolutely fine.

I like the dark and hopeless atmosphere, I like it a bit more than the album
The Enemy.

I wanted to like this album because it is released in 2007 and that was a great year for futurepop
and dark electro / aggrotech. From 2008 on there were less and less great albums coming out of
those 2 genres (with some exceptions).
Antic Clay Hilarious Death Blues4.0
Cyanotic Transhuman 2.04.5
Distorted Memory Burning Heaven4.0
song-structure wise it's one of the better harsh electro albums, because all songs always avoid the sometimes dreaded 3rd chorus.rI wish every harsh electro album has good song structures but some luckily have more atmosphere, so it's not that bad.
Electric Orange Morbus4.5
Quantum Fantay Ugisiunsi4.5
I am absolutely thankful this exists and that I have it. Not many people seem to have it so it's great I can listen to it whenever I need it.rI am thankful in general about every psychedelic band and album that exists (both rock & electronic).

Grendel (NL) Harsh Generation2.5
Apart from B.A.A.L. (Deliver Me) Grendel (NL) is known by me as the 3-chorus-man. This is a very
lightweight harsh electro album, meaning never longer than 4 minute songs, almost always a 3
chorus routine that gets old very fast.rAt least it's not a boring album, there are some solid
songs, but there are at least 16 other "aggrotech" artists that are much better.

Gel-Sol Unifactor4.5
This album is like as if the artist had an epic and very long dream at night about visiting a
strange but wonderful world where everything is colourful, with weird inhabitants (like orange
scissor people or cube goblins for example) of that world
and highly imaginative places and stuff to visit and use everywhere. Telekinesis, levitation and
other things are possibe there too.

And after waking up he was able to put this dream into sound and made a whole album of it. Of
course I only imagine it but the album indeed has a wonderful atmosphere which makes me visit that
world for the duration of the album.

I'm glad I dug this album out after many years. It's december now, it feels much more like a sunny
spring / summer album.
Assemblage 23 Meta3.5
Flooting Grooves Upsyde Downe4.0
Stendeck Faces4.5
Diorama A Different Life4.5
My #3 all time favourite band. I always loved their darkwave / synthpop hybrid. Nice dreamy sounds
and atmosphere and Torben Wendt is a great vocalist and lyricist especially when compared to other
darkwave, futurepop and EBM bands.rThis album grew on me over the years and now it's up there with
their best albums.
Also, as great as Synthesize Me is, there are even stronger songs on the album like 10.000 Meter
Waves and Blessed and some on the same high level like Colder, Kein Mord, No Tears, Sands. The
rest is very good too.

Edit:

I'm glad I dug this album out again after years, Like the 3 mentioned songs I also really like
Tears In Rain, Lost Alone, Fire, Your Road and Two Faces. Well none of the songs on the album is
bad, they're all listenable, also: 8 of 12 songs only have 2 choruses, means it is a typical
futurepop album, I like how many albums of the genre have well structured songs.
And Also The Trees (Listen for) the Rag and Bone Man5.0
Worrytrain Fog Dance, My Moth Kingdom3.5
This is good but I love the self-titled album much more. The s-t has a wonderful dreamy atmosphere that makes me wish I am Guybrush Threepwood in Monkey Island 1, there are many amazing night landscapes with stars, or I wish I am Meathook who lives reclusive, and has his bed directly under a window. good for star watching while listenign to the self-titled Worrytrain album.
Architrav Arctic Museum4.5
All 11 songs are great, although I think that the first 4 and song 6 are my favourites.rThis album is on the icy cold side of ambient (even if not "arctic" ambient like Biosphere sometimes). It has an atmosphere that sends me to an isolated frozen place with no one else around. Also, because of the very cold electronic sounds it sometimes helps against hot summer days. It's unfortunate that this artist is so unknown but it makes me feel happy that I discovered this album 10 years ago.

Tried this album, no thanks. Every song follows the same tired 3 chorus routine with lazy and
lackluster songwriting. The songs sound like they could have been made within a few hours, there's
nothing interesting to be found.

Don't get how someone could call this dark wave or gothic rock, this sounds more like a poppy nu
metal album, nothing more. Kinda similar to Unheilig, ASP, Eisbrecher, Oomph and so on, can't
stand any of them because of weakly and too predictably structured songs.

this is just wannabe goth for girlies. completely dull and meaningless.
Access to Arasaka METAX4.0
Agonoize Sieben4.0
Very good effort, didn't expect it to be honest. Assimilation Chapter One 3 years ago (2004) was a
big flop in my music world. Crappy songwriting, only few songs avoiding the 3rd chorus, lackluster
songs everywhere. On "Sieben" it's different. From song 2 to 11 there are 10 songs (!) with only 2
choruses.
Also the sound and production is very good. Typical autumnal atmosphere as well.
Lyrics sometimes well...if you are german like me and know what they sing about they can be a bit
off putting.

Of course you don't expect well thought out or clever lyrics from a typical aggrotech band now do
you?
What was it in 2007 that so many futurepop & dark electro / aggrotech artists released great
albums? It's as if they knew that their scene was beginning to die and had to put out just one
more good album. From 2008 on there were still very good albums of both genres, but they got fewer
with every year. 2007 was the last very good year for futurepop & dark electro / aggrotech.

Carbon Based Lifeforms World Of Sleepers4.5
This is like Water Ambient for me. All the songs are excellent and I usually listen to the first 10 of them in a row. Whenever something gets too much for me to bear this album is perfect to listen to as it helps me to calm down and feel better again. Most songs sound like as if you're underwater and I love the atmosphere. This is one of my most favourite ambient albums.

And yes, the album artwork fits perfectly, as if the artists were thinking the same as me, it makes you feel as if you were underwater.

I always like those heavily distorted e-guitars (which were usually used in the mid 90's by many
us-coldwave (you can also call it "machine rock") bands where Acumen Nation also came from).

This album isn't less great than The 5ifth Column, just less accessible and less catchy, also only
4 of 15 songs have the 3rd chorus, it helps keep the songs fresh.

Also I love the small little details the electronic sounds create and the way the vocalist sings.
It's industrial metal, but it sounds different from "normal" industrial metal bands.

Great discovery for me! Only knew Applied Structure In A Void from them, which is very different,
with many great small little details and nice atmospheres.

This one here has very nice structured songs, almost always avoid the 3rd chorus and the shortest
vocal song is 5:37, all others are over 6 minutes and one almost 6 minutes.
It's typical dark electro / aggrotech but I still love the autumnal atmosphere, and as often the
trance influences are important there.

I also really like the 3 instrumental songs, they fit nice with the overall atmosphere. Should
have discovered this album years ago. Never grow tired of dark electro or others like futurepop
and EBM.

Favourite songs:

1. Follow The Screams
2. Through Glass / The Beating Of Broken Wings
4. Deathkill / Mother Hunger / In The Arms Of Eternity
7. When Porcelain Bleeds / To Be Fed Upon / Revelation None
10. Prey To The Razor / All Turns White

I'm really glad and thankful that I found this album. Didn't know the artist before. This is
one
of those cases, where the album cover fits perfectly with the music and the atmosphere in it.


It's very dreamy and peaceful. The songs tend to sound similar but still, every song has
something
that keeps it interesting. It's perfect to listen to while watching stars at night or with the
pale moonlight coming into the room.
This album makes me think of Monkey Island 1, especially Meathook's house and his bed on the
second floor directly under and next to the window.

I love it when an idm album is ambient-like so that it's rich on atmosphere.

edit: But the albums Memorias Atras and Wrack And Ruin really did grow on me, most songs on both
are amazing. They almost always avoid the 3rd chorus, means the songs often have very good song
structures.

It was my first EBM album ever in december 2005 (next to Matter + Form by VNV Nation) and it changed everything. It brought me away from listening only to 80s, alternative rock and nu metal. Thanks to it I discovered more and more EBM & other electro bands and albums. It was excellent back then and it still is one of my most favourite electronic albums. Every song has its own life and atmosphere. This is one of those albums that never lost anything of its magic.
And no, there's no weak song or filler on it. I love every song for what it is.
If there is something to criticize, it's the track order. I listen to them in a different order. But that is really only a small thing.
Jan Jelinek Kosmischer Pitch3.0
Much too repetitive and it doesn't do it for me. Boring and annoying, when I really tried to get
into an album but it won't ever happen it can get very frustrating.

Music of Loscil and Monolake can be very repetitive too but they're much more interesting to me
atmosphere-wise and more clever, with small changes throughout each song.

Also I love futuristic soundscapes and atmospheres like the albums Cinemascope and Momentum by
Monolake for example.

songs on this EP, especially Exploitation, Drowned, World Of Ice, and also Handoutdrugs has many
fine moments.
Only song I'm having problems with is The Rich Are All Perverted.

Very good industrial noise album. More experimental than for example SAM, Soman, Xotox, Noisuf-X

glitch.
I love the album cover it fits nicely with the meaty, industrial sounds on the album. Next to
S.K.E.T. - Baikonur this is a rhythmic noise album I love to come back to from time to time (even
if I also like SAM, Soman and Xotox).

What an excellent ambient album, it's great to get lost into it, especially songs 2, 3, 4 (look in
the tracklist to see which ones I mean) have a great atmosphere that takes me far away from this
world into another. Songs 8 and 9 also belong to my favourites. I like all 10 songs, even the few
weaker ones are enjoyable. It's mostly beatless ambient with a cold, sometimes droney sound. It is
a real "hidden" gem that not many know about, and I listen to it very regularly.

songwriting-wise much much weaker than Antidoron and also Les Chansons Neurotiques. Too many songs
do follow the same tired and predictable 3 chorus routine, which makes the listening experience
very frustrating to me. Most songs are good, but this is what holds them back.

Antidoron for example only has few 3 chorus songs, but those are very fun to listen to and have
amazing atmosphere in them (Fluchtreflex, Hysteria and the slightly repetitive Fail To Disagree).

A nice album which has an interesting atmosphere. The genre they're in is usually aggressive and trying to be dark, but somehow the whole album has a slightly dreamy feeling as well. It's different from Memorias Atras for example which's also amazing but is less atmospheric in my opinion.rI will always have a heart for genres like harsh electro, electro-industrial and futurepop.

Much less atmosphere than Love Kills (icy, frosty masterpiece) and Exile Paradise (warm, fruity
like a passion fruit and nice sounds in the background).

edit: But this album did finally grow after I gave it another chance. Nice atmospheres as always
with this band.
Favourite songs on Holy:

1. Heal Me / Eye Of Heaven / Sleepless / Emergency
5. Alpha Centauri
6. The Darkest Corridors / Closing Eyes

This will forever be one of my all time favourite electronic albums. Of electronic music I like
ambient, psybient & psychill, darkwave, EBM, industrial, futurepop, IDM, trip-hop, field
recordings and a few others. Formless has a certain atmosphere that will always suck me in.
Atmosphere is one of the most important things in music for me and it lets my imagination run
wild.

Displacer Moon_Phase4.5
I'm extremely thankful I found another 2 amazing idm & glitch albums!! Aphorism (idm) - Surge and
this one.
The atmosphere takes me to an abandoned spaceship where I am with few other people I know from
work, many things are broken but the ship is very big and there are many wonderful places and
rooms on it! It's a coincidence that both albums have very similar atmosphere fitting for this
adventure.

Also A coincidence: a week ago I downloaded the game System Shock 2 (1999) from steam, a game
playing on a spaceship.

There are no bad songs on Moon_Phase, it's great to listen to all songs in a row, all the small
details that suddenly appear are fascinating and once again I can get lost in an album like this
very easy (I have over 100 great atmospheric electronic albums (I mean those without permanent
vocals, still loving others like EBM, industrial, futurepop, trip-hop with vocals etc) I listen to
from time to time. Especially at work, but also at home when I'm just browsing
pictures on google for example.

Much too repetitive even by electro-industrial standards. Other rather obscure bands like Run

I like the sound and atmosphere but it means nothing if the songs have no development. It's
absolutely unacceptable for me. They have 0 songwriting ability and are, in every song, chorus-
whoring.

Dismantled Dismantled4.5
I just can't get enough of those futuristic atmospheres...Many albums in genres like electro-
industrial, futurepop and aggrotech / dark electro have them, same with other wonderful genres
like IDM & glitch (especially those) and some metal (not only industrial metal like Cyanotic,
Acumen Nation and Fear Factory, even Daylight Dies - Dismantling Devotion at least to me has it).

It is always great to get lost in this kind of atmosphere. Watching sci-fi movies and then
imagining Dismantled or VNV Nation or IDM songs in them, it's fascinating.
The songs on this album here are also wonderfully structured, always avoiding normal 3 chorus
routines (Extirpation being the exception but even that song is great).

Discovered it today. Only knew Stalemate, listened to that years ago.
Terminal is a nice hybrid of industrial, rock and hip-hop, many songs are nicely crafted and often
avoid normal 3 chorus routines.
I also like how the vocals sound, reminds me of good old us-coldwave days.

Discovered some very nice industrial albums lately, this one here and Flesh Field - Strain.
Diary of Dreams One of 18 Angels2.5

predictable songs.

And Also The Trees Silver Soul4.5
Like The Klaxon and Angelfish this album is completely different from all other albums they did. Still for me this is still a very strong album. This time it has a certain atmosphere, it makes me think I'm visiting the Jones brothers (vocalist and guitarist of this band), they live in a house somewhere on the hill and it's like a time travel, they have a real Amiga 500 and other things from the 90s and a bed where I can sleep. I wish it was real.
Diary of Dreams Psychoma5.0
I will never understand some of the ratings here. This is for me DoD at their finest. Whenever I
listen to this album the atmosphere always gets me. It's one of those cases, where the album cover
fits perfectly with the music. Most songs have a deep blue dreamy atmosphere and for me personally
this album is a classic. Even the worst song "Methusalem" is very good.

favourite songs:

1. TranceFormation Baby / never'Freeze
3. (ver)gift(et) / Wild / Luna(-tic)

Swans Soundtracks for the Blind2.5
This one just doesn't do it for me. I get a lot of experimental albums after first listen (or
second) like The Drift by Scott Walker, both This Heat albums, The Art Of Walking by Pere Ubu (and
the other earlier ones) and all albums by Radian for example, and Pale Hands I Loved So Well by
Eyeless In Gaza (one of my all time favourite bands). I absolutely adore those albums I mentioned.

But I just can't give this one more than 2.5 because I just don't feel anything. Maybe Swans just
aren't my cup of tea. Only my own music world is important for me and Swans are playing only a
small role in it.

Diary of Dreams End Of Flowers5.0
I really can't understand some ratings here. Psychoma and End Of Flowers to me are by far DoD's
best albums and deserve 4.0-4.5 ratings. I love the different atmospheres of both albums.
This is also one of the most melancholic and maybe even romantic albums they did.
This is a perfect october album.

People like this idiot Willie shouldn't rate darkwave albums. If this was an european site and not
american, DoD and others like Diorama for example would have a much higher rating. Genres like
darkwave, EBM, futurepop, ambient, british post-punk would also get much more attention on an
european site because they have much more fans everywhere in europe be it germany, serbia,
netherlands, poland, russia, italy, belgium and so on.

While neoclassical darkwave isn't normally one of my favourite kinds of darkwave, there are
exceptions. Especially Dead Can Dance, Arcana and this band.
It's always great to get lost into this album, and I love it that it's a very long one.


It's always a nice feeling when I dig this album out again once or twice in a few months. I'm
thankful that mp3 files can't break so the sound quality can't suddenly decrease even after 14
years.rMusic is like a miracle to me and I'm glad everything'S still there after I wake up the

I know many obscure bands and albums and it's like a miracle to me that I found them and still

Covenant Dreams Of A Cryotank4.0
This is too underrated on here. What's not to like? The most songs have clever song structures, take Shipwreck for example, when you expect the 2nd chorus to come, the song just goes somewhere else for a whole minute before the 2nd chorus appears. Or Hardware Requiem, it builds and builds, gets really tense until the chorus finally appears.rAnd of course the 25 minute Cryotank Expansion, I love the icy cold ambient sounds, it never gets boring to me.
Chandeen Shaded By The Leaves4.0
It's a very nice, sometimes melancholic darkwave album. In the early to mid 90's germany was
darkwave's mainland. I'm glad I also have the bonus track Mysterious Clouds.rThe songs usually
have nice song structures, songs like Scottish Hills always makes me cry. I'm thankful I found
this album and other hidden gems of the darkwave genre.

This album feels and sounds like you are in the most wonderful dream possible and you don't want
to wake up. Sometimes it's hard to think how this album can exist. Sometimes it makes me feel as
if the songs on this album can only exist in it, but not outside that beautiful world.
It also has an atmosphere that makes me imagine I am in a big cemetery at 1pm on a sunny day with
colourful flowers everywhere between the graves.

It is more keyboard heavy than the other 4 albums of their first era.

For me this is a perfect album for december and when I'm playing Sonic 3 with the Sega emulator.
Then I can listen to all 9 songs in a row and they're all enjoyable to me. Still this is a very
strange album for a band like Wire. But I'm thankful that I discovered it years ago. They're all
remixes of one song and it's a positive surprise that no song sounds like the other.

Also people who give a bad rating just don't have imagination, that's what you need when you

I wish there is a review of this album, it's almost unknown compared to their first 3 albums. One
of my all time favourite post-punk bands. Years ago I even had to add this album because it wasn't
on sputnikmusic.

This album is perfect for early september days when it still can be sunny and warm but you realize
summer will not stay too long. It's a very easy album, easy to like and get lost into it.
Overkill Horrorscope4.0
PIG Praise The Lard4.5
A wonderful album perfect for spring (like Revolting Cocks - Beers Steers & Queers for example).
You can clearly hear the influences of J. G. Thirlwell (Foetus), especially the lyrics but also
the sound. I really like the clever lyrics here and the song structures.
It doesn't matter who does what better, just stop comparing you idiots and just enjoy the albums
for what they are or you will end up only liking maybe 50-60 albums instead of 900 albums like me.
The Fair Sex Bite Release Bite4.0
Pink Turns Blue Aerdt4.0
I'm thankful I have this hard to find album. Songs like Seven Years, Andy, Aerdt, Genuine and Dec.
24 are so dreamy, perfect for watching the stars and moon at night, also perfect for cold autumn
days.

@GhandhiLion: What I don't like is that you and other people just can't simply enjoy certain songs
and albums for what they are, I wish you would stop comparing bands and just enjoy the music. When
someone likes / loves a band / album it shouldn't matter how original and influential a band was.

Pungent Effulgent is another gem and the 1988-2000 Ozrics era was and is incredible, they were
almost invincible back then. How great it is to get lost in space and in their music.

He will always be one of my mainstream-80's heroes. His face and voice somehow remind me of Gadget
of Chip & Dale rescue rangers (the female mouse), I don't know why. His first 2 albums (both from
1984) are really good, all 20 songs very listenable and the lyrics are really clever sometimes
compared to other mainstream artists of the mid 80's. I wish I try his later albums some day.
Also I like his name, "Nik Kershaw" is a perfect name for the year 1984.

This is one of 9 albums I have of this amazing band.
When I listen to this album, I can smell the colourful leaves when they fall to the ground,
because it's a nice early autumn album. They have a pleasant scent.

They might have been called a post-punk band, but same as And Also The Trees, both never really
were close to typical bands of that genre, and also didn't care about that, both have their own
unique sound and somehow it felt like both were in their own musical world. It's incredible both
are still active and releasing amazing albums! The Trees started in 1979, EiG in early 1980.

Kim Wilde Select4.5
I'm glad I checked this album out, as all 10 songs are very enjoyable after first listen. I like
the sound more than on the first album, it's much more electronic (but still has that new wave
feeling that I love), and everything sounds icy and frosty, the atmosphere, the sound, the
instruments, even Kim's voice often sounds chilly. It feels almost like as if it's snowing in my
earphones.
That's what I love about this album and at least 4 songs don't even have the 3rd chorus and I also
like the very fast songs that are on it. Also as always it's great that the bass guitar is usually
audible.

favourite songs are clearly What Else!? and Not A Word, those even belong to my all time favourite
Comsat Angels songs, are up there with the best on Sleep No More (a post-punk classic). Birdman,
Now I Know and Zinger are also very good, others are decent to average. Still a nice post-punk
album, on a good 34th rank in my post-punk albums list.


Once more Andy Peake shows why he is one of my personal keyboard heroes of post-punk (next to
others like Dave Formula of Magazine).

I don't get how someone could call "Glass" boring or uninspired. It's in my top 10 songs of the
compilation "Substance". And Ice Age is strong too. But about the other songs I agree, Substance
is much stronger as a compilation.
The Cure Charlotte Sometimes (Single)4.0
Opposition Breaking The Silence5.0
An absolute post-punk classic. Already in 1981 on this album they had a sound and a very thick november-atmosphere that The Chameleons would be known for too, 2 years later (with a classic album of their own, and similarly 1986 Strange Times).rI'm thankful and lucky to have the remastered version of Breaking The Silence, the production is incredible and makes the rainy / foggy atmosphere stand out even more.

I'm really glad someone helped me getting this album. Searched it for years, needed it because I love post-punk and the year 1981 where there were many great albums of that genre.rFive Or Six mixes post-punk music with ambient music, nice, cold and atmospheric.

Pere Ubu The Art Of Walking4.5
Finally got time to check this album out after years of only having Dub Housing and New Picnic
Time (both amazing, NPT even one of my top 10 all time favourite post-punk albums).
This one here is even more strange and experimental. And I'm glad Allan Ravenstine (synths) gets
even more spotlight on The Art Of Walking. After some listens the album unfolds more and more.

Song ratings:

1. Go (4.1)
2. Rhapsody In Pink (4.3)
3. Arabia (4.2)
4. Young Miles In The Basement (4.0)
5. Misery Goats (4.7)
6. Loop (4.4)
7. Rounder (3.9)
8. Birdies (4.7)
9. Lost In Art (4.6)
10. Horses (3.9)
11. Crush This Horn (4.3)

Rating: 4.28. I still rate the album 4.5 because I love to listen the whole album, it brings me to
nice colourful and weird places in my mind (also the sound and atmosphere reminds me somehow of
the graphics in James Pond 2 Robocod, an Amiga 500 game).

I also found the song Arabian Knights, it's very similar to Arabia, just with David's vocals.

Can't someone make a review about this album? Well I can't believe New Picnic Time now is one of my most played albums. Was hard to get into it but now that I love all 10 songs it's almost easy listening for me. I love every single sound and everything about how David sings no matter how weird he does it. The synthesizer and guitar are also very well used together. It even entered my all time top 10 post-punk albums list on sputnikmusic and there's no end in sight!

This album deserves a rating above 4. Kinder Des Alls is a great song, and then Galactic
Supermarket. It really takes me to a real galactic supermarket somewhere in the exosphere of the
earth (far above the ISS).


It's a wonderful place where you can buy everything you ever dreamed of.rWith glowing yellow tiles
(and blue-red lines between them) you walk on. Why the hell does that place not exist in reality.
