If Trent Reznor was a woman, that is how Nine Inch Nails would sound, in all probability. Luckily, no such thing has happened.
The best track on "Dying & Falling" is undoubtedly "Swimmers Can Drown". It is extraordinarily energetic – saturated with electronic and dance beat, complimented by an exquisite female voice.
This record teems with brisk sound bases, which will surely get every party going.
Pulsating melody and piercing, vibrating tunes prove the high class of this release. The longing vocals, which sends shivers down your spine on numerous occasions in "The Shake", simply tugs at your heartstrings. Nevertheless, the touching voice of the vocalist is one of the assets of this album. It is not that easy to find a voice, which will create such a marvelously unreal atmosphere, that it brings nothing less than dreams to your mind.
The release is by all means an interesting one. Dance beats, which load the whole up, do not interfere with the perception of "Dying & Falling"; the latest album of I:Scintilla proves that their work is adorably sweet and indeed innocent, arousing the feeling of excitement with its simplicity and fabulous finish. In result, the record makes it clear it was created out of sheer love for music. The album may be regarded a s not overly soft, but one will surely derive full pleasure from listening to it, as its message kindles positive emotions and galvanizes. The drawbacks of the sound layer are fully compensated by unusually powerful and sultry voice of the vocalist. The vibrant and rhythmic electronic constitutes a perfect background for her vocal show. I:Scintilla’s style balances maintains equilibrium among dance electro, industrial and energetic rock. And may it stay that way.
