Funhouse EP "Don't Wanna Know Me" got into my hands by a pure accident. I listened to it three times and came to conclusion that the major inspiration for this album must have been The 69 Eyes. Even the vocalist has the same manner of singing.

But let's get down to it. However the first song recalled the 69 eyes and did not impress me the third did enormously. Unfortunately it was a bad impression. I am not a fan of that kind of remixes. Maybe the band's name is associated with clown-like music, using the vast sense of humor, but in this case it was even too vast. The last composition is the first experiment of the kind on Funhouse EP because we have here the dance remix of the main song and let us hope that it will never ever happen again. The one and only song worth the attention is "Falling Apart" – dark, melodic, gothic rock.

It is perhaps the question of taste but I think the previous album "Flames of Love" showed definitely better side of the band. 


Tracklist: 

1.Don’t Wanna Know Me
