2012-05-01 / A.k.Bizarre / Reads: 4966

Here comes another edition of the release paying homage to the new romantic geniuses. Depeche Mode is one of the most frequently covered bands, however, in most cases, poorly. I suppose that Alfa Matrix, after quite good sales results that Vol.1 achieved, decided to make up another prescription for a...

This is the first full-length album of the Australian band formed in 2008 called Razorfade. Their work include already one EP called "Liberation".

Poor and hardly atrractive German sounds, unsuccessful attempt of making electro pop rock. Heavily listenable and indigestable composition. The album contains of four pieces. Beginning the rendering from "Idiot Crowd (Night Version)", ending with "Flowerpower", floating electro trying to sufficiently drive into recipient’s head, unfortunately without any major energy and...
