About Laibach walk no more explain and say much - just enough perhaps that they are revered by their numerous fans and supporters for years, are hated by some opponents for years and have always been spat from trivial critics. But all of that has always driven further to make this extraordinary formation their thing and they are the most important pillars of electronic music.
Laibach have survived all the trends, be it techno, whether EBM, it was metal even if it is Pop. And with SPECTRE go Laibach in their consistency with the Pop - albeit Pop in Ljubljana has a slightly different significance than is found in many other artists.
SPECTRE is despite everything 100% Laibach - Politically, powerful and with full force. That's for sure, and even if Laibach here with ancient traditions break something and go on their way, new ways, they remain true to themselves and the audience present an extremely exciting and thoroughly enjoyable new work, which one picks up immediately under the spell.
The first makes "The Whistleblowers" and already there you realize beside the merry whistle that Laibach are serious. The follow-track "No History" surprised with catchy loops and a mix of modern Electro Background squeaking, which are constantly used by new, uninspired Electro bands. In Ljubljana, it is an exciting element demonstrating her perfectly integrate into their musical cosmos again. We continue then with a real bang the safe in which one or another club should be used and that the Electro Punk even bowing "Eat Liver!" the really fun and fully convinced. And until then, you know it: Laibach are here easy to use and is not necessarily in Ljubljana course. Who now but thinks at all catchy flute typical creativity of Laibach is satisfied at the latest on songs like "Americana" and "Euro Vision", because there romp Ljubljana in the search of sounds and prove that they at all modern changes society their vision remain faithful.
In vain one seeks to SPECTRE blunt attitude of WAT album, one looks in vain here for the bulkiness of earlier publications and also in vain one looks here also DAF cover versions - SPECTRE is another chapter in the long and exciting history of Ljubljana. A look into the future, the here and now and with a great conversion. So you know it from Ljubljana, so you want it from them and how it should be!
The Deluxe Edition also still waiting with four additional songs on the also into fit perfectly into the overall picture of this album - and with "See That My Grave is Kept Clean" underline Ljubljana definitely their status - in their own way and in their own way. Say: SPECTRE is great cinema.
