1. POWER: Grenade! One of the best opening track, the pants have ever had on one of their boards! Rightly 1. Single!
2. Everything inside is NEW: Already known from Rock am Ring, then I liked it not very, here on board, but it comes pretty darn good; hard, loud, catchy chorus.
3. DISCO: A novelty! When there was in the pants ever !? electronic samples To me, "Bloodhound Gang meets Campino's Voice" to mind! Fits here but well, the song goes well forward and jump over in ...
4. PART OF ME: also known from Rock am Ring, even this number I liked then little; on board, the song turns out to be very good but - perhaps the new songs were not then so good! ;-)
5. RESOLVING: after almost run over a the first 4 songs, now there's a quiet number, without drums and amplified instruments, but including a duet with a singer;. chilling, almost jazzy, gives me but not much.
6. LIFE IS FATAL: GRENADE NUMBER 2 !!! Fast song with many rythm-Switch goes, damn good ear and into the legs. Tip / hope will ne Single!
7. DROWNING: was probably already played at the Unplugged concerts, but so far not published. Good mid-tempo song, with simple but memorable, almost hypnotic piano track. Could I imagine as a single.
8. all that was: also located in the mid-tempo, very nice number. Not really hard, but I like good!
9. PESSIMIST: very fast song with a good chorus, typical number for the pants, the rhythm is sometimes a bit tricky than in previous punk numbers, what the whole still adds value.
10. We remain silent: once more midtempo, once again a good song.
11. The final battle: a fast, rock 'n' in heat number that I like very much, thematically go to the "transparent people" - ie a socially critical song.
12. SWAP against you: the 2nd song of the record, which does without drums and electric amplification. Reminds me of "Our House" of immortal, just like me this number here much better!
13. FEAR: great ending a great disc, once you get this almost hypnotic moments, not quite fast song, but damn insistent and so very well done!
Conclusion:
All in all, the album entitled "energy" more than justice, which is why I would like to express a strong buy recommendation for this record! In my opinion it is one of the best albums of the pants at all - and I've got them all! ;-)
Finally, I would like to express the hope that the pants will present at the upcoming tour as many songs on this disc live, they would fit perfectly into their setlist with security!
And now: Enjoy listening, all sliders to the right and to the effect !!!
