Martin Gore is getting to the point ...

... Atmosphere and mood are fairly close to Depeche Mode cosmos anno 1986-1990.Und just too close to the last brilliant DM-disc "Delta Machine".
Perhaps also needs once a genius some time and distance from the own Verganganheit get back to bekommen.Genau clears the mind that Martin Gore on his new solo album more than ever.
I know that many Depeche Mode fans want to have a very specific image of the music around Martin Gore what your fan-be confirmed on a new, but on the other hand, the band Depeche Mode only one sole reason is so successful and unique remained until today - precisely because they never serve the eternal classic clichés of popular culture wollten.Sie were constantly looking for the "new" in their music.
Why Maybe because I want to share this joy at the new output of Martin Gore like with all and that's why the album should simply reinzuziehen late at night in peace and to realize how dense write that? While Martin Gore is linked to the old days and pure electronic minimalist side of his music to the fore FINALLY bringt.Das is again basically no solo album but a new update of the Depeche Mode in purely instrumental music form.
Here and there it makes "hum" and the synth bass drives a melancholy face and the next moment the vote analog keyboards those singing at which we have since "Violator" no longer as urgently minimal part - and sometimes it so happens as a would have here on an early Recoil production space gehabt.Das I just say - "how delicious is this".
Well then:
... Because the album has failed (like "Delta Machine") is very homogeneous, it is difficult special title hervorzuheben.Am best can be selected as the entry of the title "European Hymn", perhaps because he the typical harmonies of Gore with the most clearly united by him sought minimalism, while at the same time in the time of Depeche Mode around 1986 heranreicht.Aber also the track "Elk" was still a further striking example.
Comparisons with the last project VCMG (Vince Clark / Martin Gore) although may be close, but are more due to the fact that this is also is a pure instrumental album and Martin Gore on the basis of which held the Abkürzel MG for very fit.
However musical stabs the project MG out more than VCMG did ever, simply because Gore clearly puts the emphasis on atmosphere and harmony.

CONCLUSION: The more often you the album of Martin Gore surrenders, the more you can be doing fall voluntarily and premature ideas (as if you please an album from the "Enjoy the silence" has to sound Mastermind) gives up, the closer you the electronic sound universe of Martin Gore and so ergo Depeche Mode.Komisch - but true .... !!!!

PS .: Warning only SynthPuristen !!! The album is 100% free guitar and fits like the fist's "Black Eye":)
