Title: Uninspired floorkillers & strangled prose...
Review: I'm a huge fan of VNV Nation, but this CD was just as huge a letdown. It seemed like they were aiming for a sound that is dancefloor friendly or regurgitating sounds from past songs (one song, "Momentum", even sounds like "Interceptor" from Matter + Form). Also, these are the worst lyrics Ronan Harris has ever written. When it's not uninspired, it's laughably strangled (from Descent: "Limitless are the ways of mankind in its virulent capacities". Huh?). I just hope this isn't a trend, and "Of Faith, Power and Glory" proves to be a return to glory for them.
