Finnish debut offers 6 tracks in electro-industrial climate. The first beats of music were quite tolerable but after listening to whole album I thought it's monotonous. It makes an impression of never ending song. Only the last track seems to single out from the rest of the compositions on the album. Unfortunately, the emphasis was put more on the vocal than on new music experiments and what the band presented isn't anything new. It would neither bring under any changes nor echo in this kind of music yet another electro-industrial project. I totally disliked the dominant vocal chaos. For how long can one listen to something that resembles of hissing of a snake? Not to mention that in one song one can hear a three times changed voice and vocalist is only one. This pattern is repeated almost on every composition. Vocal is definitely taking the lead and I can even say that it's too much of it. In a result we have a dark disco with sometimes exaggerated voice. The band did not show off in a matter of lyrics; the chosen subject is commonly known – a collection of few wise words and sayings known for centuries. To sum up: no sensation.

1. Don’t look back
