Title: "Perpetuum Mobile" a slight disappointment.
Product review: There are many great reviews of this album, but I must say I was slightly disappointed by this latest release. It is supposed to be somewhat of a second half of "Silence Is Sexy," (all of Neubauten's albums follow a definite theme) but it certainly lacks the intense emotional depth and drive that E.N. is famous for. "Perpetuum Mobile" feels vaguely superficial, detatched, and even pretentious at times (especially the lyrics, which are mostly in German). Blixa's high pitched screech is over-utilized. There are some high points however, and the instrumentals are amazing as always. If you are a first time listener, I highly recommend "Silence Is Sexy," or their "Strategies Against Architecture" series over this album.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
