Disco de Blutengel: “The Oxidising Angel”

I am a relatively new fan to Blutengel. I have only heard one of their songs a couple of years ago. I have always wanted to get one of their cds but their music was only available as an import and the prices weren't exactly cheap. Blutengel finally got US distribution for their latest album "The Oxidising Angel". I recently received a copy of the band's new album and I immediately fell in love with the band's brand of EBM. The cd kicks off with a major punch with the title track. The song is propelled by a fierce synth hook and aggressive electronic beats. Chris Pohl's dark, rich vocals gives the entire album an atmospheric sound. His voice is complimented by his two backing female vocalists. After hearing this cd, it would be hard not to recognize Chris Pohl's beautiful voice. The band does an amazing interpretation of "Cry Little Sister" from the campy vampire flick "The Lost Boys". That song along certainly makes buying "The Oxidising Angel" worth the money. Then there is the gorgeous piano ballad "A Little Love". "Leave the Day" returns the album to that fast paced beat that the title track. My very favorite track is "Angels of the Dark". It is very catchy and is worthy of constant replay on the stereo or on my computer at work. Great dance song. Same with "Navigator". The synth beats on all of the songs are crisp and melodic. It is getting rarer and rarer nowadays to find a cd that is completely flawless. The production is immaculate. The vocals are clear and not bogged down by samples or poor production. The songs are addictive and should be listened to at top volume. If you like bands like Icon of Coil, VNV Nation, and (old) Apoptygma Berzerk, "The Oxidising Angel" is certainly worth checking out.

Okay. So i heard about Blutengel (Blood Angel for thouse who don't know German that much) on Amazon, just browsing, looking for new stuff. Read the song titles, not a bad cover, sort of Marilyn Manson-ish, nice art direction. Okay so far. But like what people say "Don't judge a book by its cover". Boy was this true.

Call me a fan of all sorts of music, from the classics beethoven, jazz, rock, pop, dance, techno, etc etc. Even 'new age' appeals to me sometimes. Blutengel is a good group. But their brand of music i can only label them as... well... VERY european techno-dance with unpoetic lyrics. Not to blame them for they command in English but in my opinion they should hire a new translator.

The sound samples are very good. Trust me, but the arrangement is rather too... happy, to upbeat. To add more salt, the male vocalist's voice as well as the girls don't fit the type of upbeat, happy-ish music.

Gregorian + Crash Test Dummies (vocals) + Lemon Jelly = Blutengel. They like to be dark, but unfortunately they still haven't begun to touch the gray area.

Great effort, try again.
