And now I have heard "head to head". For various reasons, I did not tend to it. Was it perhaps better that way? Was that a postponement of farewell SILLY? It could be such, for me. That I'm not out of my head since I heard "head to head".
Some had already begun in "All Red". This similarity in sound with SILBERMOND for example. No wonder, the second album by the East German pop rock produced Ingo Politz. The has now done the second time for Silly. And that can be heard. It's more pop than rock, although the drums and the guitars scream crashes. That even sounds partly by ROSENSTOLZ. For Anna Loos makes her singing, even at the very first song, the title song. For the texts provide. Even those who come back from Werner karma fall because little out of line. Unfortunately. That reminds me too much vulgar philosophy is, for example, in "Your Atlantis". And "Your Strengths" could be of ROSENSTOLZ.
Musically, there a lot of New German Hardness heard. Quite so, as if Uwe Hassbecker and Ritchie Barton played too often for Joachim Witt. But that wants to make off less Pop feel than the hardness of attitude. There is nothing new in the songs. This of course is difficult after so many years. It is even difficult to find new melodies, new sounds, new tones that had not already heard. But that could SILLY once. Their music was different from what had otherwise heard in east and west. It was not this new German Poprockeinheitsbrei even after the GDR. Now slays the drums the melodies, the guitars roar, the finer shades away, no later than the chorus.
In SILLY were always surprises to hear even if these were slanted. I can not accurately describe the. I'm not a musician, can not analyze by harmonies and chords that. But I hear that the self and the Special SILLY music has disappeared from this. Your soul's gone ... to describe it so, it occurred to me straight. This has nothing to do for me with the loss of Tamara Danz. But maybe indirectly contributed this help.
All this is only my personal impression. And it is quite normal. It changed just almost everything, almost nothing remains as it was, or appeared to me. Some stops and I move away from it. So the band has changed, the musicians. I hope I'm not stopped.
A farewell is normal. It did not happen in the dispute, stay back good memories. So I feel after listening to "head to head". It remains the longing for the previous songs SILLY. They came to me even then before timeless. Nice that I can hear it again and again, if I feel like it. So it's not really goodbye, never to hear.
