Product Description

From Amazon.com

An unusual album by Front 242, the band's two singers were not directly involved in its construction. It is, however, first-rate electronic music with remarkably creative programming and flawless production. It features a female singer (Christine Kowalski), another surprise for longtime Front 242 fans. Her voice is wrathful and distorted on "GenEcide" and "Modern Angel," longing and resentful on "Crushed"--a touching song about loss and isolation. Menacing drum sounds and an enigmatic chant propel the portentous "Serial Killers." Intricate percussion patterns and sweeping synthesizers make for some of Daniel Bressanutti and Patrick Codenys' most memorable programming, particularly on "Animal," and the remixes "Junkdrome" and "Skin (Fur Coat)." --Mark McCleerey

5.0 out of 5 stars Off the scale., 19 Jan 2004
By ROBERT (London) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 05:22:09:12 Off (CD-R)
If you are even remotely into electronic music this CD is off the scale. It is a must own. Don't think just buy it. The sound is layered beautifully and the tracks are all masterpieces in their own right. This is some of Front 242's best work and should be in everyones collection.

4.0 out of 5 stars strange but true, 28 May 2004
This review is from: 05:22:09:12 Off (CD-R)
this really is a strange piece of work, almost as if it was on random play at times.some songs lead into each other yet some are far more opposing and against the grain, but what makes this is its pure electronic hum you doze off then it hits you and drags you back in with twisted sounds and almost delerium style vocals
this is the fourth front 242 album i have acquired and by no means my last but for now my favourite
a must have for those chill out times

3.0 out of 5 stars A somewhat patchy album, 18 Oct 2003
By Jay M "jay_mc" (Dublin, Ireland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
Always rated better than the same year's 'Up Evil' album, I have to disagree. Though a much more ambitious and less commercial sounding album than 'Up Evil', it's journey's into sound exploration and harsh vocals are too unsettling sometimes.

On this album they seem to be getting more and more into KMFDM territory and other industrial bands, who despite their similarites, have a totally different sound to Front 242.

They just seem to be trying to be a band that they are not on this album. I like some of the sound collages. All sweet, sprinkling synths and then drowned out by huge, whailing barrages of industrial sound, but on the whole this album does not do it for me. It's neither EBM nor Front 242 electronics in the truest sense.
