Highlight of 2014!

It will still be people who are still interested in good, electronic music from the catacombs of the black underground scene, the people so times can start anything with the standard 08/15 stuff which completely occupies the German landscape scenes (and want) - Two years ago, have Chrysalide from France get with their previous album "Do not be Scarred, It's About Life" with the people with the good sense of "dark" electronic music full attention ... And also rightly so, because said album was a challenge to the ausgelutschten pabulum which in circle rotating with "black" scene. The refreshing, complex, radical blend of ingredients Electro Punk, harsh industrial beats, Dub Step bonds and hip hop cross references (yes, something like I did then also described in my Rezi to said album and I stand also) and a touch "frickeligkeit" trademark Skinny Puppy met Bullseye (with me and a few others). Of course, said the album was not's for Wochenendgruftis or Cyber ​​Hüpfdohlen because it was too complex, too hard and radical in its orientation (and thus did not play the (self-proclaimed) Disc Changer DJ's of local Electro / EBM / Industrial clubs a song from this great album because so you scared so the paying guests who then prefer to leave such a Weichspül balderdash as VNV Nation and consorts.

Now if you (the third album) PERSONAL REVOLUTION has inveigled itself, you will quickly notice a difference with the previous album: The new album is much more structured and when the three French had ever thought to deliver a club album. Quick, one might think that one would now anbiedern also at the scene, and even if at first sight everything it implies that one has now become tame with the new album, you can give all friends of the harder and more complex sounds the same all-clear! HUMAN REVOLUTION is just as complex and krachig like its predecessor, too radical for the broad mass scenes still and uncomfortable! Only with the suddenly are songs here difference that could perhaps even by the scenes in which stagnant s DJ's playlist appear slightly more willing.

After atmospheric and very atmospheric intro "Welcome to the 21 st Century" show Chrysalide with the successor Track "Question Everything" relatively minimal list Siche manner should sound as good Industrial in 2014, followed by much slower, but damn voice "Tomorrow is Too Late ". And then follows the killer song "We Are Not Cursed" a real club banger who smells really after Clubsound: Bratzig, creaky and Driving - Perfect! Although the follow-up song "Another Kind of Me" throttled back a bit the pace but after a short time noticed the gentle listener, the chrysalis of a quite well mastered in all chirping and crashing in their sound: to conjure melodies! Yes, That's right: For all hardness Chrysalide do with that song quite a stylish Industrial anthem with pop character (although we do not want to talk of the conventional pop music here, but about which one also with this kind of music certain accessible parallels the Pop Music can operate without a trace not mainstream or Chumming therefore come to) - Chrysalide have the brutality of their previous album purifies something and focusing on the essentials and still have maintained their style and consistency. This is also reflected in other songs such as "Cynicism is a Poison, Vote for Molotov" or "All Demons" again and for the rest of the rest of this fantastic album!

HUMAN REVOLUTION is perfectly produced, highly explosive political and just like the first two albums of the band with a declaration of war message. Probably as much news for most of the in-crowd is again too much (yes, be quiet overwhelmed) but I say: In addition to the current Blush Response album "Desire Machines", this album is one of the real highlights of 2014 in the genre! Clean and completely convincing work guys!
