Far too often, is "The Resistance" misunderstood and highlighted the inconsistency as an error, dzusammen with the softer direction. But that it is a concept album full of self-irony and conscious absurdity and exaggeration, as well as beer serious songs and last but not least an almost faultless blend of orchestral and rock is, is too often overlooked. It is not recognized that "I belong to you" is not cheesy, but ridiculous and winking references the really corny "Guiding Light" (You're my guiding lightning strike). So the mentioned Kitsch is again made up and mocked. Wonderful, really. That it has commercial features, quality, far from diminishing, and behind the use of Klagmittel is a stroke of genius. Hats off!
