Review:
With a total of 11 full-length albums in their long band history, it was about time for the ‘creative leaders’ (Zillo) of the German Gothic Scene, to release their first ‘Best Of’ Album! With their unique and always ‘darker than darkest’ sound full of irony, Untoten succeed to create ‘aural landscapes’, worlds of images and feelings, mourning and longing among their countless followers. Greta Csatlos’ voice – at times fragile and tender, then again full of passion and intensity – and David A. Line’s melody-lines create songs of rare intensity and beauty for over a decade. This ‘Best of’, coming with 12 pages booklet including all lyrics and a special ‘photo gallery’, contains the early indie-hits, such as the provoking ‘Sperm Finger’ or the wonderful ‘Absence of Light’, as well as more recent ‘classics’ such as ‘Herz der Finsternis’, Willst Du?’, ‘Blutrot, die Liebe’ or ‘Cynthia’ – tracks that have become ‘ever-greens’ in the German and international gothic club-scene!

Reviews: Mercurial Behaviour is a conceptual album on which every “act” represents the confused thoughts and visions of a murderer.
Lyrics and words are rearranged in different ways and moments to create a hypnotic mantra leading us in different directions and states of emotions; all intertwined through a soft and haunting dark atmosphere created by piano, acoustic guitar, bells, industrial sounds, loops and of course that broken Italian psychotic voice of Daniele Serra.
Medusa’s Spell is a filmic dark-ambient-pop project of Mara Lasi and Daniele Serra, known from the parallel project Chirleison (amongst others) who released a CD on Fossil Dungeon in 2004.
The album was recorded and engineered by the legendary Simon Balestrazzi (TAC, Kirlian Camera) at the Neurohabitat studio.
Die Form 是法国的虐恋组合,他们制作怪异、性感、未来主义的黑暗电子音乐已近30年。他们专心于虐恋这一生活方式,除了创作天才而堕落的音乐以外,还从事摄影、行为艺术和摄像等活动。
Die Form 的电子音乐风格赤裸,强调肉欲却又十分艳丽。里面充满的是歌剧遗韵,古典意味,部落色彩以及一些深藏在我们内心最深处的官能冲动。他们的音乐是针对光明与黑暗,男性与女性,美丽与悲伤,acoustic与电子,以及爱慕与激情的对照研究。
初次接触 Die Form 大概在5年前,当时对其音乐一直未能接受,Fichot野兽般的吼叫以及电气化噪音太过极端和嘈杂,之后就一直没有关注。去年了解到其后来的专辑中Fichot已逐渐退出男声,而主要由古典女高音Elaine P.的演唱推动全曲发展,并加入大量小提琴元素。
