With Mesh I am doing in the past few years difficulties honestly always. Since their 1999's album The Point at Witch It Falls Apart, they have always surprised me positively. The combination of good pop melodies, rock elements and electro influences are always been what might like to hear my ear. Although their boards need ever longer in recent years in order to bake in my head, they are always happy launched. Okay, you have to initially also not find anything good. By the second it sounds just often better.
Now put mesh with Automation baby her seventh studio album before now, which leaves almost nothing to be desired. Mark Hocking and Richard Silverthorn have understood again, fourteen smaller and larger pop pearls out to conjure, where I keep asking myself why this band has no commercial success in a big way.
The album starts with a classic for me mesh opener. Just leave us alone provides everything which should start a drive and open the horizons of mesh universe. The first highlight then forms but then Taken for Granted. Although the track sounds a bit overloaded in some places, but drives powerfully at. A little less pop, but a little more oomph, ready would be a hit. I need to start again take me far away it says. A reboot is not required the track, but a little more risk taking would not be bad. Since then I sit but on the live implementation. But what went wrong with the other hand You want whats owed to you? The track sounds too smoothed out for me. The melody sounds heard as a thousand times and always continue geskipt for me. And somehow dissipates the initial euphoria, and it takes a long time for me to get back in the album. For smooth sound tracks like Automation Baby or The Way I Feel. It lacks the high points in the individual tracks and as ripples, much of the plate to himself. Only six tracks later I get in Born to lie again. There it is again, the typical mesh plate. Born to lie is to dance and party. The track is loud and impulsive and includes the certain tragedy that can hide mesh repeatedly in her pieces.
Automation baby comes largely from without major highlights. Too bad, but it gets stuck for me only once in mesh nothing Concise. Is it because they have made it with automation Baby mission is to create a concept album called? Do you do it consistently with the ever-changing consumer society from social networks and the resulting anonymity of individuals. Or it is perhaps in the work of producer Olaf Wollschläger which the albums of mesh is pressing in the years too much in one direction.
I would treat the mesh large commercial throw from the heart. With Automation baby they have not provided a good album. The master stroke is thus not unfortunately succeed.
