Monostrip
The grand youth
Wonderland Records
"The grand youth" is a mixed bag, not only in terms of quality, but in focus: opener "Too many hearts" feels like an electronica-tinged post-punk revivalist anthem; "Miami" is a jumble of '80s pop influences; "Monostripper" oscillates uncomfortably between a quieter, spoken verse and a louder chorus; "Brooklyn Bridge" succeeds, yet its songwriting and production leave it feeling out of place; and so it continues. There is a lot to like on this record -- with "Drowning" featuring Emmon being one of the highlights -- and a lot that is too easily forgotten or skipped over. It's a bit too par for the course to be truly excited about, especially from an act that boasts members of I'm from Barcelona.

MP3: Emmon - Secrets & lies
I barely keep up with industrial/EBM at all anymore, but I did go through a period in my teens when I was all about it, so I think I'll always have a soft spot for the stuff, especially early Wax Trax such as pre-guitar/"Alain" Jourgenson/electropop era Ministry. Taken into consideration, it's fitting that I find myself really enjoying the new Emmon album since it's so reminiscent of that era -- well-crafted, melodic-yet-dark electronic pop. And not dark like faux-vampire/mesh shirt dark, just minor key and beautiful. I still enjoy the minimalist and intentionally primitive music of acts such as Agent Side Grinder or Adolf Filter, but quality pop songs always win in the end and "Secrets & lies" is a great one, especially with the long buildup to the point that the heavier beats come in. I also appreciate the moderate tempo; yet another hallmark of earlier times, not to mention maturity and craftsmanship. I'm sure people will still find ways to dance ridiculously, should it comes on at your local goth nite, but it doesn't have to be that way.
