seven

Strangely enough, this is the first full-length cd for this Swiss band that released its first tape back in 1992. And even more strange is the fact that it got signed by DSBP - the label that is known for its excellent and overly aggressive promotion and a line of quite average releases.

Listening to this album the first time it reminded me of Abscess or old XMTP, a good thing, right? Actually, the programming is good as are the vocals as well, so what's the problem you ask? Well, the album seems to be …….uninspired. All the ingredients are in the cake, but someone forgot to add the yeast. The problem isn't that the band doesn't have talent, it feels like they're just going through the motions here. The music lacks any sort of depth or emotion. It's almost like a routine that they've perfected so well that they forgot why they're into this. I really feel if these guys ever find their Muse, they may be a force to be reckoned with in the electro genre. I guess we'll have to wait and see.
