I've listened to the sounds of the recent album of Seabound "Double-Crosser" with a real pleasure. First of all because its quality isn't lower than the previous publishings of the German band, secondly because it has a great emotional load. Too delicate for syth-pop and too subtle for electro-indu, the album remains at the border of both genres having the quality of one or the other depending on the track. Rarely are there album that have no weak points, which you may listen from the beginning to an end , but "Double-Crosser" is one of them.

The album also features great "The Promise" remixed by Covenant and "Scorch The Ground" by Rotersand. The rest isn't that appealing. There are two extra tracks which are not included on the album, but how can they be treated as treats when they're so poor...

I'd give two notes most willingly -- one for the album, the second for the CD with remixes. But to limit myself to just one, I may give Seabound 70%. It's the album worth of your attention, undoubtedly.
