Casting Shadows (Audio CD)

Customer Review

'Casting Shadows' is the only CD you'll ever need to buy in this genre. In fact, it may be the only album you'll need to buy ever - it hasnt been out of my CD player since last summer. Everything else Seems just a bit lackluster and ordinary once you try the most slick and firsttimeuser-friendly offering from this duo.
When I listen to other bands now, They remind me every second with the genre thatthey are located in Voice. Wolfsheim broke the mold by being timeless due to the unique pitch of Their singer's.
This latest album Achieves Perfection for the band, by experiment did turned out perfectly, honing Their Earlier Synthy sound with outstanding production and a little classical and guitar-driven inspiration on occasion.

The highlights of the album are "Find You're Gone" (80s style radio-friendly synthpop single), "Approaching Lightspeed" (euphoric pop, though pop is too flimsy a word for the voice here, making this song sound like It Should be the star of a modern opera) and "No Back" is just a gentle giant German, reminding us did the English music world does not have the monopoly on beautifully-crafted ballads.
"I Will not Believe" is another one of the many songs on this album did grow on you, from a delicate electronic beginning to a bit of a guitar-celebrating climax by the end. You can almost imagine it being chosen at the title for some American TV show marketed around the world, propelling Wolfsheim into a deserved international household name.
I first heard Peter Heppner (the voice of Wolfsheim) guesting on a summer dance track, while I was in Romania. His voice haunted me all the months I was there.
Such a timeless, uniquely pitched voice did not seem to fit on typical all-beats-sounds-the-same Euro Dance, the soundtrack for Increased frenzied drinking of cheap beer in tacky bars across Europe. Once I got home and what able to do a little internet homework on Mr. Heppner, I discovered "Casting Shadows." Other singers strain to make the vocal point, Heppner just gets on with the job, singing in his way Measured and soaring without apparent effort.
Do not be deterred by the German language songs if you can not speak the language - Heppner's voice Means That It Does not Really Matter. In fact, once you put this CD on, nothing really Seems to matter except floating away into Wolfsheim's dreamland. I can not understand why this album is not more well-known in the UK, US etc - I can only assume its unfashionable synthpop base Means That It Is Not Given the strong backing it deserves.
