The cd starts off a little "iffy" with too many guitars for this "Electro Head", but it's only for 4 songs then the other 31 (THIRTY ONE!) songs on here are like pure electronic bliss! The band has a great dark sound like 242 or Nitzer Ebb meets Laibach! I can't imagine how they never got to be huge stars in the "Industrial" scene like "Covenant" "VNV Nation" or "Apoptigma"... the hooks and great programs on the songs are all top-notch and on a level with 242 or Front Line, or more in line with old WAX TRAX artists, maybe that is why the newer kids did not embrace them like the fake "techno" bands listed before in quotes? I don't know/// but I *DO* know that this collection from all 17+ years of CROC SHOP's cds relesed is a *must own* for any "electronic music fan" be they into Futurepop, Synthpop or hard Industrial too!!! Gotta own this one to belive it's overall greatness! |
