This album can't be specified in one music genre, which is good. I give you 9 points. Just for one track. into sugar. "I AM THE HUNTER, YOU ARE THE HUNTED, I AM THE HUNTED, YOU ARE THE HUNTER" It just keeps playing in my head! paranoid!! but the album features a lot of weird parts which are offbeat, at some points that sounds cool but not always. that's where you lost the one point. but really good job, if there will be a new album i'll surely get it.

I've listened to this album 3 times now and it draws me in more each time. The first time I listened, it was a bit loud for my taste, but intriguing enough to make me want to listen a second time. The second time I listened, I thought "This isn't really what I want to listen to while I work, but it really should be used in a movie or something." Today I'm listening for the third time (yup, while I'm working) and I'm saying to myself: --I like the energy --I like the piano in "peaceful" and the driving rock drum refrain it leads into, and I need to listen harder to catch the lyrics --I like the children's(?) voices in "macbeth"; the way they get clipped and remixed is kind of interesting, but I'm not sure it's completely successful for me in the middle section, but then it works again as it progresses into the more multi-layered part with the synthesized drum(?) beat --I love the brass in "swear" and "union and hope" --I like the lyrics and voice in "into sugar" ("I am the hunter, you are the hunted...") but wish they weren't made so explicitly clear at the end. That seemed a bit heavy-handed. --Nice water sounds in "inc." Thanks for an interesting album with a lot of energy, some very pretty parts and enough to keep me coming back to listen again.

Utterly mindblowing. Became an instant favourite of mine, not just on Jamendo

I'm a huge music nerd with a collection of over 80GB, and this is some of the very best if not the best music I've ever heard. It's an all too rare blend of industrial experimentalism and accessibility. That is, it's highly experimental but not too demanding of the listener, because it includes great rhythms and highly memorable choruses which are catchy and engaging enough even for radio play. This music is highly emotional and cinematic with complex, lovingly crafted rhythms and detailed atmospheric soundscapes. The best tracks: Union and Hope (amazing!) The Peaceful Swear Union and Hope is a very beautiful track with a great brass hook. Swear is a very sonically inspired but driven track with another great brass hook. The Peaceful has a fantastic chorus. Other tracks: Macbeth is an enjoyable bit of experimentation that relies on a sample of what sounds like a children's or female choir counting in German. The entire track is this sample cut up and blended with industrial beats. Inc. is probably the worst track on the album. It's not bad, but it's not my thing. It's just strange, eerie alien sounds and a slowly developing industrial rhythm. The intro serves its purpose well but it's not really something to listen to by itself. Higher is quite nice and anthemic but not a favourite. It's probably the simplest and most straightfoward song on the album and is a fairly sad and slightly creepy thing that mainly repeats an average vocal line. Into Sugar isn't as good as the other English reviewer on here makes out. It's still a great track, but not as good as the others that I've pointed out. Anyway, I can't wait until Enemies of Enormity release something else.

Compositions experimentales electroniques tantôt symphoniques,romantiques,contemporaines Un certain charme s'en dégage dans cette démarche conceptuelle. Approche cependant assez difficile;à reserver pour les créateurs electroniques. Je pense à toi Nikila Gift for Nikila and Saregama

Le talent d'Enemies of Enormity mériterait bien plus de patiente et de finesse, qu'il laisse donc couler ses idées, et si ce n'est pas assez pour faire un titre, qu'il dépose cela sur quelque chose juste bien fait, mais décalé comme il sait le faire. C'est étrange comme certains, qui ont tout ce qu'il faut, tombent dans une radicalité qui, selon eux, suffirait en soit. Je suis obligé de mettre juste sous la moyenne, ça m'embête, c'est dommage, mais c'est trop expédié. the peaceful : Après une intro supersonique et horrifique, ce tire enchaîne avec quelque chose qui continu dans l'esprit avec du clavier et des voix; c'est proche de la variété mi-romantique, mi-intelligente, mais qui sans tout ce bruit serait assez ordinaire. macbeth : Au moins il y a une idée intéressante (et amusante) autour d'un chant découpé selon un tout autre rythme et style que l'origine. Par dessus, une rythmique plus arrogant que subtile même si il y a beaucoup de détails. Il y manque un peu d'âme, de cohérence, c'est le grand écart. swear : C'est un peu bourrin. union and hope : Je ne sais pas trop. C'est fort, mais pas très beau ni très original et ça ne claque pas beaucoup. higher : C'est un peu un résumé; ce n'est pas mal mais il manque pas mal de choses encore. into sugar : C'est un peu lourd, un peu simpliste et un peu pauvre inc. J'aime bien le côté vieux film, le décalage total, là d'accord.

Excellent !!! "Ca dégage les cages à miel !" an "unwholesome" atmosphere tinged with melancholie Very nice work - I really do like ALL tracks :) I don't agry with Jamengod, sorry. MacBeth: "es errinert mich an ... Ja ! 1 2 3, du bist frei, 4 5 6 kleine Hex'..." Die kleine Hexe! Ghosts lost in woods - Pure Electro-Dark :) Splitting the singing to create a new beat slice is a nice idea Would be marvellous as movies' soundratcks This one or other projects :)
