Kite - II EP

Kite - II EP (2009)
Progress


I really like the idea of a band that only release ep's. Now, I don't think that's the case with Kite. This is their second ep, and second release, as well. But I'm sure they will be releasing proper albums in the future. I have no problem with that if they can continue releasing records as strong as these two ep's. This ep is even better than the first ep "Kite".

Imperative Reaction - Minus All

Imperative Reaction -
Minus All (2008)
Metropolis

I've been listening to this album all week. Not because it's so good, but because I want to like it! And lately it has begun to grow on me. It's fast and angry EBM, but not all the time. The album surely has some variation. I think the melodies and the sounds are too forgettable. Try this if you want something that sounds familiar to listen to. Typical background music. But not bad. I can't seem to make up my mind...

Mesh - A Perfect Solution

Mesh - A Perfect Solution
(2009) Dependent

There's so many great electronic releases this autumn. It's hard to just pick one each week. I've never been a fan of Mesh before, but this album rocks! It's dark and powerful. Just like Depeche Mode should've sounded on their last three or four albums. Stand-out tracks are "Only Better" and "Who Says", but all songs are great. The only thing I don't like with this album is the short instrumental snippets between most of the songs.

Rotersand - Random Is Resistance

Rotersand -
Random Is Resistance
(2009) Trisol

Rotersands best album so far. Waiting To Be Born is maybe the only song on this album I would choose as a single. Rotersand chose an inferior version of the song War On Error instead. The album version is really cool, but I don't care much for the single version. Get this album now! It has great, varied songs and no fillers!
