Comments:
Very weird stuff. Ella Blame and Michael D. Temple make edgy but highly accessible music. Her vocals are frequently impressive if a sometimes a bit on the affected side. It's a pleasant record to listen to and some of the songs are marvelous. The witchy "Thought Control" is somewhat like Nina Hagen gone dance. "Dance with me (Temple Mix)" is scary and haunted rather than danceable. It's very suggestive and might have been recorded by Delerium. "Violent Silence" is an unusual song with an extraordinary vocal. So, it's a challenging and different debut this. (stjarnell@yahoo.com)
Thanks to Anna Maria Stjärnell for her work on this entry.
