4.0 out of 5 stars German avant-pop at its finest!, 14 Sep 2004
By A Customer
Make no mistake, this is an indie-pop album. If, like me, you are looking for something a bit more leftfield, you might want to reconsider. This is not to discourage though - a very fine indie-pop album it is, with instantly likeable melodies buoyed by constantly imaginative and tight production, laregely informed by electronica. 'One Step Inside' builds on inauspicious acoustic beginnings and builds into subtle layers of crackling electonic fug, underpinned by a wood-block rhythm. 'Pilot' is instantly recognisable, a piece of classic pop charged by a electro rhythm that surges and swoops in all the right places. Other highlights include the avant-pop of 'Trashing Days' and the cut-up violins and breakbeat of 'Solitaire'. Always engaging and accessible - each song is carefully crafted with a whole raft of styles and instruments (from flutes to banjos and neo-drum 'n' bass rhythmic stylings). But the focus tends to rest heavily on the vocals, a kind of Germanic Belle and Sebastien, sometimes a little high up in the mix for comfort. This, the German version, also features three instrumental bonus tracks - but these are more afterthoughts than fully-realised compositions. Like this? Also try labelmates and affiliates Lali Puna's 'Faking the Books'.

5.0 out of 5 stars German melodies, 5 Feb 2004
By A Customer
This album exudes a class which i have not heard, or encountered since the oral poems of Homer. This is German poetry on a level with the Catullan Epigrams, or Propertian couplets. Simple lyrics combine beautifully with flutes, guitars, and subtle electronica too produce some of the most uniquely dark and anaphoral ballads i have ever experienced. Lurking in Weilheim, Germany in the early 90s as a heavy metal outfit, Markus and Micha Acher, along with drummer Martin Messerschmid, released two albums filled with pounding drums and guitar solos (The Notwist and Nook) before almost abandoning it completely, byt their perseverance should now be rewarded.
It's godspeed meets grandaddy meets Autechre, with an infusion of german scholarship. dark and mysterious, combining energy with stark drones. this is the begining of a dynasty of great albums, and although it has taken some time - in a very Augustan concept of 'tantae molis erat Romanam condere gentem' -one gets the impression that the struggle has been worthwile. Purchase.
'life is a loop, you're in a room without a door'
