| 5.0 classic |
| And Also The Trees (Listen for) the Rag and Bone Man |
| And Also The Trees Further from the Truth |
| And Also The Trees Green Is The Sea |
This album feels and sounds like you are in the most wonderful dream possible and you don't want
to wake up. Sometimes it's hard to think how this album can exist. Sometimes it makes me feel as
if the songs on this album can only exist in it, but not outside that beautiful world.
It also has an atmosphere that makes me imagine I am in a big cemetery at 1pm on a sunny day with
colourful flowers everywhere between the graves.
It is more keyboard heavy than the other 4 albums of their first era. |
| And Also The Trees Virus Meadow |
Every time I listen to Virus Meadow I feel happy I can visit the imaginary places and people which
all appear in this album again. Lyrically they're my all-time favourite band. |
| And Also The Trees Farewell to the Shade |
| Diary of Dreams Psychoma |
I will never understand some of the ratings here. This is for me DoD at their finest. Whenever I
listen to this album the atmosphere always gets me. It's one of those cases, where the album cover
fits perfectly with the music. Most songs have a deep blue dreamy atmosphere and for me personally
this album is a classic. Even the worst song "Methusalem" is very good.
favourite songs:
1. TranceFormation Baby / never'Freeze
3. (ver)gift(et) / Wild / Luna(-tic)
6. You(-das) / E.-dead-Motion / Never!Land / End(Giftet) / Drop Dead
11. Methusalem / Touch |
| Diary of Dreams End Of Flowers |
I really can't understand some ratings here. Psychoma and End Of Flowers to me are by far DoD's
best albums and deserve 4.0-4.5 ratings. I love the different atmospheres of both albums.
This is also one of the most melancholic and maybe even romantic albums they did.
This is a perfect october album.
People like this idiot Willie shouldn't rate darkwave albums. If this was an european site and not
american, DoD and others like Diorama for example would have a much higher rating. Genres like
darkwave, EBM, futurepop, ambient, british post-punk would also get much more attention on an
european site because they have much more fans everywhere in europe be it germany, serbia,
netherlands, poland, russia, italy, belgium and so on. |
| Echo and The Bunnymen Heaven Up Here |
| Entheogenic Enthymesis |
| So far I had their self-titled first album, Spontaneous Illumination and Dreamtime Physics. I wanted a 4th great album of them. Alas Flight Of The Urubus still has not convinced me enough. Then I checked out this album here two days ago. I was very surprised, everything sounds great and on its right place. The acoustic guitar, the voices and especially all the electronic sounds.rThis is by far their most spacey sounding album, but still psychedelic. I did not expect this to be that overwhelming but it is. Sometimes it is hard to hold the tears back because I can't believe this album exists. |
| Fractured Only Human Remains |
It was my first EBM album ever in december 2005 (next to Matter + Form by VNV Nation) and it changed everything. It brought me away from listening only to 80s, alternative rock and nu metal. Thanks to it I discovered more and more EBM & other electro bands and albums. It was excellent back then and it still is one of my most favourite electronic albums. Every song has its own life and atmosphere. This is one of those albums that never lost anything of its magic.
And no, there's no weak song or filler on it. I love every song for what it is.
If there is something to criticize, it's the track order. I listen to them in a different order. But that is really only a small thing. |
| Gong You |
| Gong Angel's Egg |
| Gridlock Formless |
This will forever be one of my all time favourite electronic albums. Of electronic music I like
ambient, psybient & psychill, darkwave, EBM, industrial, futurepop, IDM, trip-hop, field
recordings and a few others. Formless has a certain atmosphere that will always suck me in.
Atmosphere is one of the most important things in music for me and it lets my imagination run
wild. |
| Lunatic Soul Walking on a Flashlight Beam |
Excellent album for november and even more for december, it's now 9 years since I discovered it and it still hasn't lost any of its magic. I just completely feel the atmosphere in every of the 9 songs. If only Stars Sellotaped was 3-4 minutes longer, it's wonderful but too short. That's the only negative thing I can say about this album.
As always I don't care about other people's opinions (I don't even look at their lists), this album is a classic in my music world. This is just a wonderful album to get lost in.
Of course it's not a perfect album, but "classic" albums don't need to be perfect to be "classic". |
| Meshuggah Nothing |
| Mystical Sun 26000 |
| a well deserved 4.5 from me. This album is like a big adventure, a journey into a jungle. "Whirlpool" is when you get there, "Place Of Refuge" when you discover a sea in there, "Immersion" when you swim and wash yourself in there and the waterfall nearby. "Canopy" is when you discover a great view at a cliff. |
| Neuroticfish Antidoron |
what a great discovery and this album will accompany me through my favourite season autumn / fall.
A futurepop artist who releases his best album ever in 2018, after existing for over 20 years is
very rare, and I really love Les Chansons Neurotiques (2002) and Gelb (2005) is solid.rBut the
grey november-like atmosphere on Antidoron is something I really enjoy and I love to get lost into
this album. One of my favourite discovered albums of 2019.
edit from september the 28th: Congratulations to Antidoron! It's number 4 in my new list and I
hope this album will be honoured many more times. Looking forward to late december there will be a
top discoveries list from 2019!! |
| Opposition Breaking The Silence |
| An absolute post-punk classic. Already in 1981 on this album they had a sound and a very thick november-atmosphere that The Chameleons would be known for too, 2 years later (with a classic album of their own, and similarly 1986 Strange Times).rI'm thankful and lucky to have the remastered version of Breaking The Silence, the production is incredible and makes the rainy / foggy atmosphere stand out even more. |
| Ozric Tentacles Jurassic Shift |
| Ozric Tentacles Arborescence |
| Sad Lovers and Giants Feeding the Flame |
| Skinny Puppy VIVIsectVI |
| sleepmakeswaves Love of Cartography |
After only 5 days of listening this album has made it to "classic" and I feel it will never
change. The magic will never fade. This brings me to another planet where this album is legendary,
sold millions and the first 2 songs on it were number one singles.
The planet is more progressive, peaceful and optimistic, and the night sky always is a mix of
black, purple and dark blue, it's also roughly 24 hours a day but
there it's always cold, late autumn-like with only 6 hours of daylight
Here a song rating (only the 8 main songs):
1. Perfect Detonator 5.0
2. Traced In Constellations 5.0
3. Emergent 4.9
4. Great Northern 5.0
5. The Stars Are Stigmata 4.7
6. How We Built The Ocean 4.9
7. Something Like Avalanches 4.8
8. Your Time Will Come Again 5.0
I can't believe it myself but that's really how I rate the songs, might be one of my highest rated
albums ever (9.8 of 10) |
| sleepmakeswaves Made Of Breath Only |
It's really incredible that they managed to follow up the immense Love Of Cartography with an
album like this. I tried to go into this album with as little expectation as possible, only
checked it out after more than half a year after LoC.
While LoC ruled everything in 2020 when I discovered it (And I discovered many amazing albums btw)
this year Made Of Breath Only did the same and is on first place in my 2021 list, followed by
bands like Daylight Dies (Dismantling Devotion) etc.
I love the glacial and frosty atmosphere on the album. What a journey this album is!
edit:
yes while of course it's not a perfect album by any means I had to bump it up from 4.5 to 5.0
(Love Of Cartography has the same rating since 5 days after I discovered it in 2020) because the
world it takes me to is just too immense and beautiful. I still just can't get over those 2
albums, at least in my world they're classics. Now I need to check out their 1st one at some
point. |
| The Chameleons Script of the Bridge |
| The Comsat Angels Sleep No More |
| Ufomammut Snailking |
| It's just wonderful space doom, and the perfect starting point for people new to this band. I also love the production. What I also always appreciate is the electronic sounds that add a lot to the atmosphere. |
| VNV Nation Matter and Form |
| Had to change this album from 4.5 to 5.0. It IS a classic to me and in december 2005 it was one of my personal landmark albums (next to Only Human Remains by Fractured) and both album changed everything in my music world back then.rAll songs are great, the weakest song is Colours Of Rain but all other are amazing and the album never lost anything of its magic. |
| Wire 154 |
| 4.5 superb |
| 65daysofstatic One Time for All Time |
| Absurd Minds The Focus |
| Absurd Minds Damn The Lie |
| Access to Arasaka Oppidan |
| Acumen Nation Anticore |
I always like those heavily distorted e-guitars (which were usually used in the mid 90's by many
us-coldwave (you can also call it "machine rock") bands where Acumen Nation also came from).
This album isn't less great than The 5ifth Column, just less accessible and less catchy, also only
4 of 15 songs have the 3rd chorus, it helps keep the songs fresh.
Also I love the small little details the electronic sounds create and the way the vocalist sings.
It's industrial metal, but it sounds different from "normal" industrial metal bands. |
| Acumen Nation Psycho the Rapist |
| Aesthetic Perfection Close to Human |
| Agalloch Ashes Against the Grain |
| Agalloch The Mantle |
| Alva Noto Xerrox Vol. 2 |
Another nice ambient album. My first of this artist. I like all songs, only "Xerrox Meta Phaser"
needs to grow on me, that song is very noisy.
Often I have that feeling that I just can't discover enough great atmospheric electronic artists
and albums.rThis album takes me to a sheltered and isolated place where no one can find me.
Favourite songs:
1. Xerrox Phaser Acat 1
2. Xerrox Sora
3. Xerrox Teion & Xerrox Teion Acat
4. Xerrox Monophaser 2
5. Xerrox Soma
6. Xerrox Tek Part 1 / Xerrox Monophaser 1
8. Xerrox Monophaser 3
9. Xerrox Meta Phaser |
| Alva Noto Univrs |
| Alva Noto Unitxt |
| American Head Charge The War Of Art |
What an amazingly well-written album for the nu metal genre. 10 of 16 songs only have 2 choruses.
Many songs have nice twists and go somewhere else after the 1st or 2nd chorus. You wouldn't
normally expect that in this genre. You can hear in most songs how much effort they put into
keeping the songs interesting.
Also the electronic sounds in the background add a lot to the atmosphere, which sometimes even
feels a bit futuristic to me (Just So You Know, Effigy 23 and some of the songs following that
one)
I guess I just have to dig deeper into the nu metal genre to find a gem like this one. Or just
keep on discovering albums of genres I like much more (doom metal, black, death, post-, djent,
metalcore etc). I still have a heart for this genre, and discovering this album today means a lot
to me. |
| Amon Tobin Supermodified |
| And Also The Trees Born Into The Waves |
| And Also The Trees Hunter not the Hunted |
| And Also The Trees Silver Soul |
| Like The Klaxon and Angelfish this album is completely different from all other albums they did. Still for me this is still a very strong album. This time it has a certain atmosphere, it makes me think I'm visiting the Jones brothers (vocalist and guitarist of this band), they live in a house somewhere on the hill and it's like a time travel, they have a real Amiga 500 and other things from the 90s and a bed where I can sleep. I wish it was real. |
| And Also The Trees The Millpond Years |
| And Also The Trees The Klaxon |
Favourite songs on it:
1. Wooden Leg
2. The Flatlands / The Soul Driver
4. Dialogue / Sunrise / Jonny Lexington / The Dutchman
8. Sickness Divine
9. Bullet Head |
| And Also The Trees The Bone Carver |
| And Also The Trees Mother-of-pearl Moon |
| Apogean Cyberstrictive |
| Architect (DE) Consume Adapt Create |
| Architrav Arctic Museum |
| All 11 songs are great, although I think that the first 4 and song 6 are my favourites.rThis album is on the icy cold side of ambient (even if not "arctic" ambient like Biosphere sometimes). It has an atmosphere that sends me to an isolated frozen place with no one else around. Also, because of the very cold electronic sounds it sometimes helps against hot summer days. It's unfortunate that this artist is so unknown but it makes me feel happy that I discovered this album 10 years ago. |
| Arcturus The Sham Mirrors |
| Atoma Skylight |
I'm glad someone recommended me this album after I loved the icy / frosty atmosphere in "Antares"
by Sybreed. This album is even colder. Everything is coated in ice, the keyboards and synths, even
the drums and the guitar.
I can never get enough of icy cold music, no matter which genre (ambient, some early 80's post-
punk and new wave or metal). For over 14 days already does this album rule my music world together
with Sybreed - Antares. This is why I love discovering bands and albums. |

| Carbon Based Lifeforms World Of Sleepers |
This is like Water Ambient for me. All the songs are excellent and I usually listen to the first 10 of them in a row. Whenever something gets too much for me to bear this album is perfect to listen to as it helps me to calm down and feel better again. Most songs sound like as if you're underwater and I love the atmosphere. This is one of my most favourite ambient albums.
And yes, the album artwork fits perfectly, as if the artists were thinking the same as me, it makes you feel as if you were underwater. |
| Carbon Based Lifeforms Hydroponic Garden |
| Clan of Xymox Medusa |
| Coldworld Melancholie² |
| Colour Haze CO2 |
| Covenant Europa |
| Crowbar Sonic Excess in Its Purest Form |
| Crowbar Odd Fellows Rest |
| Crowbar Zero And Below |
| What a great return! When you get a new album of Crowbar, of course you know what you'll get. They just can't disappoint. Also, it's their first album since their deubt album from 1991 where no single song has the 3rd chorus.rNext thing I really like is the album artwork, my favourite of them so far in that aspect. |
| Cyanotic Transhuman 2.0 |
| Darkthrone Transilvanian Hunger |
| David Bowie Low |
| Daylight Dies Dismantling Devotion |
Amazing discovery. I really feel the atmosphere and the guitar melodies and riffs add a lot to it.
Atmosphere wise the album feels different from other doom metal albums.
It has a mystic and futuristic touch that brings me to the positive and
progressive sleepmakeswaves planet.
Also all 8 songs are very nicely structured with interesting twists thrown in. |
| Dead Can Dance Within the Realm of a Dying Sun |
| Death Human |
| Deathspell Omega Paracletus |
| Deftones Koi No Yokan |
| Deftones White Pony |
| Deftones Ohms |
| Destroid Loudspeaker |
| Diary of Dreams Cholymelan |
| Die Sektor To Be Fed Upon |
Great discovery for me! Only knew Applied Structure In A Void from them, which is very different,
with many great small little details and nice atmospheres.
This one here has very nice structured songs, almost always avoid the 3rd chorus and the shortest
vocal song is 5:37, all others are over 6 minutes and one almost 6 minutes.
It's typical dark electro / aggrotech but I still love the autumnal atmosphere, and as often the
trance influences are important there.
I also really like the 3 instrumental songs, they fit nice with the overall atmosphere. Should
have discovered this album years ago. Never grow tired of dark electro or others like futurepop
and EBM.
Favourite songs:
1. Follow The Screams
2. Through Glass / The Beating Of Broken Wings
4. Deathkill / Mother Hunger / In The Arms Of Eternity
7. When Porcelain Bleeds / To Be Fed Upon / Revelation None
10. Prey To The Razor / All Turns White
All 11 songs are of course great! |
| Die Sektor (-)Existence(+) |
| Die Verbannten Kinder Evas Die Verbannten Kinder Evas |
While neoclassical darkwave isn't normally one of my favourite kinds of darkwave, there are
exceptions. Especially Dead Can Dance, Arcana and this band.
It's always great to get lost into this album, and I love it that it's a very long one.
It's always a nice feeling when I dig this album out again once or twice in a few months. I'm
thankful that mp3 files can't break so the sound quality can't suddenly decrease even after 14
years.rMusic is like a miracle to me and I'm glad everything'S still there after I wake up the
next day. |
| Diorama Amaroid |
| Diorama A Different Life |
My #3 all time favourite band. I always loved their darkwave / synthpop hybrid. Nice dreamy sounds
and atmosphere and Torben Wendt is a great vocalist and lyricist especially when compared to other
darkwave, futurepop and EBM bands.rThis album grew on me over the years and now it's up there with
their best albums.
Also, as great as Synthesize Me is, there are even stronger songs on the album like 10.000 Meter
Waves and Blessed and some on the same high level like Colder, Kein Mord, No Tears, Sands. The
rest is very good too. |
| Diorama Cubed |
| Diorama Her Liquid Arms |
| Diorama The Art Of Creating Confusing Spirits |
| Diorama Tiny Missing Fragments |
| Dismantled PostNuclear |
| Dismantled Dismantled |
I just can't get enough of those futuristic atmospheres...Many albums in genres like electro-
industrial, futurepop and aggrotech / dark electro have them, same with other wonderful genres
like IDM & glitch (especially those) and some metal (not only industrial metal like Cyanotic,
Acumen Nation and Fear Factory, even Daylight Dies - Dismantling Devotion at least to me has it).
It is always great to get lost in this kind of atmosphere. Watching sci-fi movies and then
imagining Dismantled or VNV Nation or IDM songs in them, it's fascinating.
The songs on this album here are also wonderfully structured, always avoiding normal 3 chorus
routines (Extirpation being the exception but even that song is great). |
| Displacer Moon_Phase |
I'm extremely thankful I found another 2 amazing idm & glitch albums!! Aphorism (idm) - Surge and
this one.
The atmosphere takes me to an abandoned spaceship where I am with few other people I know from
work, many things are broken but the ship is very big and there are many wonderful places and
rooms on it! It's a coincidence that both albums have very similar atmosphere fitting for this
adventure.
Also A coincidence: a week ago I downloaded the game System Shock 2 (1999) from steam, a game
playing on a spaceship.
There are no bad songs on Moon_Phase, it's great to listen to all songs in a row, all the small
details that suddenly appear are fascinating and once again I can get lost in an album like this
very easy (I have over 100 great atmospheric electronic albums (I mean those without permanent
vocals, still loving others like EBM, industrial, futurepop, trip-hop with vocals etc) I listen to
from time to time. Especially at work, but also at home when I'm just browsing
pictures on google for example. |

| Entheogenic Entheogenic |
| Entheogenic Spontaneous Illumination |
| Entombed Left Hand Path |
| Entombed Clandestine |
| ESC (Eden Synthetic Corps) Enhancer |
Even after over 10 years this album this holds up well, and it's different from many other harsh
electro albums, it has more a spring-like atmosphere than an autumnal one.
And the yellow album artwork looks great and fits perfect with the sounds on the album. More
melodic than other albums of the genre most songs also have nice twists to avoid standard 3 chorus
routines.
Favourite songs:
1. Waste Of Ammo
2. Needle Catwalk / Architecture / Alpha Male
5. Deathtrap Circus / Despise / Heartware 2.0 / 0.26 Bladefucked
9. Attention Whore / Wrong Way / Totes Licht / Reptile |
| Eyeless In Gaza (UK) Pale Hands I Loved So Well |
| Eyeless In Gaza (UK) Rust Red September |
This is one of 9 albums I have of this amazing band.
When I listen to this album, I can smell the colourful leaves when they fall to the ground,
because it's a nice early autumn album. They have a pleasant scent.
They might have been called a post-punk band, but same as And Also The Trees, both never really
were close to typical bands of that genre, and also didn't care about that, both have their own
unique sound and somehow it felt like both were in their own musical world. It's incredible both
are still active and releasing amazing albums! The Trees started in 1979, EiG in early 1980. |
| Eyeless In Gaza (UK) Song Of The Beautiful Wanton |
This is one of their best since they came back in the mid 90's. I'm thankful I have 9 albums of
them now, they're my #4 band of all time.rFavourite songs:
1. Sorrow Loves Yr Laughter
2. Staring
3. Dearsong
4. Old And Cold And Full Of Ghosts
5. One Light Then
6. Lullay My Liking
7. Mysterious Traffic
8. Less Sky, The Lovely Wanton
10. Among The Blue Flower And The Yellow |
| Eyeless In Gaza (UK) Sun Blues |
I'm really glad I downloaded this album for 9,99 euro on amazon after I thought about it for a few
days. Eyeless In Gaza are one of my all time top 4 bands and so far I had 8 albums of them. After
the second listen Sun Blues exploded, suddenly I love all the songs on it.
All the small details like the electronic sounds, the bass guitar, the sax which in one song
sounds like a seagull, add to the atmosphere that I really feel.
The first releases were in 1980, this is 36 years later and this album can easily hold its own
against their best albums. I didn't expect that, and it proves that good albums are worth much
more than 9 euro (I'm from germany) because they can stay with you for the rest of your life. |
| Eyeless In Gaza (UK) All Under the Leaves, the Leaves of Life |
| Farflung A Wound In Eternity |
| Fear Factory Genexus |
| Fractured Beneath The Ashes |
| Funeral for a Friend Casually Dressed & Deep in Conversation |
| Gel-Sol Unifactor |
This album is like as if the artist had an epic and very long dream at night about visiting a
strange but wonderful world where everything is colourful, with weird inhabitants (like orange
scissor people or cube goblins for example) of that world
and highly imaginative places and stuff to visit and use everywhere. Telekinesis, levitation and
other things are possibe there too.
And after waking up he was able to put this dream into sound and made a whole album of it. Of
course I only imagine it but the album indeed has a wonderful atmosphere which makes me visit that
world for the duration of the album.
I'm glad I dug this album out after many years. It's december now, it feels much more like a sunny
spring / summer album. |
| Geomatic 64 Light Years Away |
Really great stuff! I'm thankful I dug out this artist after 10 years, all the time I had this
album but never took the time for it.
Amazing sound design, interesting atmospheres, and the tribal elements are still there. Often a
spacey feeling, sometimes futuristic, mixed with middle eastern elements.
Genres: dark ambient, tribal industrial, IDM & glitch (although quite a bit different from most
IDM artists). |

| In Strict Confidence Love Kills! |
| I am always fascinated by music with icy cold sounds and atmosphere. Songs like "Heaven Is The Place To Be" are perfect examples of that. I can never get enough of frosty electronic stuff. |
| In Strict Confidence Exile Paradise |
| In Strict Confidence Face the Fear |
| In Strict Confidence Zauberschloss |
| Inquisition Into the Infernal Regions of the Ancient |
| Integral Rise |
| Integral The Past Is My Shadow |
This is amazing stuff! Loving their first one "Rise" for over a year and 9 months already, this
one here has a different, darker atmosphere, and an immense sound palette compared to Rise.
It's over 2 hours long, but it never gets boring, every of the 18 songs has something that makes
it stand out. It is a whole new world for me to explore, vast futuristic landscapes everywhere,
fascinating adventures I will have with this album. This is why I love discovering IDM, psybient &
ambient albums, just when you think you have heard everything, there is something new around the
corner.
Also, it's not electronic-only, some organic instruments do appear too in many songs. |
| ISIS Oceanic |
| ISIS Panopticon |
| ISIS Wavering Radiant |
| Jesu Terminus |
| Jordan Rudess Feeding the Wheel |
I'm thankful I discovered that he releases solo albums, Feeding The Wheel is my first of him and I
love all the electronic sounds on it. I always like keyboard & synthesizer in rock & metal music.
Of course John Petrucci is in 4 songs but that's a great thing.
Favourite songs:
1. Ucan Icon
2. Crack The Meter
3. Quantum Soup
4. Revolving Door, Dreaming In Titanium

| Kim Wilde Select |
I'm glad I checked this album out, as all 10 songs are very enjoyable after first listen. I like
the sound more than on the first album, it's much more electronic (but still has that new wave
feeling that I love), and everything sounds icy and frosty, the atmosphere, the sound, the
instruments, even Kim's voice often sounds chilly. It feels almost like as if it's snowing in my
earphones.
That's what I love about this album and at least 4 songs don't even have the 3rd chorus and I also
like the very fast songs that are on it. Also as always it's great that the bass guitar is usually
audible. |
| Leviathan The Tenth Sub Level of Suicide |
| Life Cried Drawn and Quartered |
Very nice album, nice sounds and atmosphere! Having another harsh / dark electro phase right now,
reminds me of 2007 and 2008 where that and futrepop were two of my main genres on last.fm.
Favourite songs:
1. Guardian
2. Sacrilege
3. Living Hell
4. Rage (Dying Existence)
5. Hallowed Be Thy Name
6. As We Decay, Stale, Darkest Eyes
9. Burnt To Ashes
10. Waiting For An End |
| Lifelover Konkurs |
| Loscil Endless Falls |
| just another great ambient album. There are too many amazing atmospheric electronic albums I know. This one takes me far away. While I'm listening to this album nothing can harm or touch me, In my mind I'm in a different place, wonderful and isolated, no one can find me there.rI like that in every song there are sounds that are with me for the whole song, I don't want them to leave me. I wish I could get the vinyl only songs Graupel and Kinematics. |
| Lycia A Day in the Stark Corner |
| Lycia Cold |
| Lycia Quiet Moments |
Great atmosphere, takes me to a barren wasteland where it is always foggy and no one can reach me
there.
I wish I can visit that place whenever I want. |
| Lycia Estrella |
| Magazine No Thyself |
This deserves a better rating than 3.3. Maybe 3.8 or 3.9 would be more fair. This album isn't less
great than their first two albums. I still love the clever song structures in most songs.
For me it is better than "The Correct Use Of Soap" because that album was too light for me
sometimes, but it still had great lyrics. |
| Magazine Secondhand Daylight |
| Magazine Real Life |
| Mahavishnu Orchestra The Inner Mounting Flame |
| Maps and Diagrams Antennas And Signals |
I'm really glad and thankful that I found this album. Didn't know the artist before. This is
one
of those cases, where the album cover fits perfectly with the music and the atmosphere in it.
It's very dreamy and peaceful. The songs tend to sound similar but still, every song has
something
that keeps it interesting. It's perfect to listen to while watching stars at night or with the
pale moonlight coming into the room.
This album makes me think of Monkey Island 1, especially Meathook's house and his bed on the
second floor directly under and next to the window.
I love it when an idm album is ambient-like so that it's rich on atmosphere.

He will always be one of my mainstream-80's heroes. His face and voice somehow remind me of Gadget
of Chip & Dale rescue rangers (the female mouse), I don't know why. His first 2 albums (both from
1984) are really good, all 20 songs very listenable and the lyrics are really clever sometimes
compared to other mainstream artists of the mid 80's. I wish I try his later albums some day.
Also I like his name, "Nik Kershaw" is a perfect name for the year 1984. |
| Nine Inch Nails The Downward Spiral |
| Oresund Space Collective The Black Tomato |
What an amazing psychedelic album and adventure!
And I am glad both songs before Viking Cleaner are cut into 5 and 3 parts, it's easier for me to
listen to the whole album that way.
I'm extremely thankful I discovered many great psychedelic bands & artists (rock and electronic
like psybient & psydub). Many are hard to find but the ones I have will stay with me for the rest
of my life. |
| Ott Skylon |
| Ozric Tentacles Erpland |

| Ozric Tentacles Become the Other |
Favourite songs ranking:
1. Vibuthi
2. Wob Glass / Plurnstyle / Ahu Belahu
5. Neurochasm / Cat DNA
7. Ghedengi / Become The Other
But as with every album of them from 1989 to 2000 there is no weak song, I always love every song
on every album from that timeline. |
| Ozric Tentacles Waterfall Cities |
| Ozric Tentacles The Hidden Step |
| Pain of Salvation The Perfect Element, Part 1 |
| Pere Ubu The Art Of Walking |
Finally got time to check this album out after years of only having Dub Housing and New Picnic
Time (both amazing, NPT even one of my top 10 all time favourite post-punk albums).
This one here is even more strange and experimental. And I'm glad Allan Ravenstine (synths) gets
even more spotlight on The Art Of Walking. After some listens the album unfolds more and more.
Song ratings:
1. Go (4.1)
2. Rhapsody In Pink (4.3)
3. Arabia (4.2)
4. Young Miles In The Basement (4.0)
5. Misery Goats (4.7)
6. Loop (4.4)
7. Rounder (3.9)
8. Birdies (4.7)
9. Lost In Art (4.6)
10. Horses (3.9)
11. Crush This Horn (4.3)
Rating: 4.28. I still rate the album 4.5 because I love to listen the whole album, it brings me to
nice colourful and weird places in my mind (also the sound and atmosphere reminds me somehow of
the graphics in James Pond 2 Robocod, an Amiga 500 game).
I also found the song Arabian Knights, it's very similar to Arabia, just with David's vocals.
(4.2) |
| Pere Ubu New Picnic Time |
| Can't someone make a review about this album? Well I can't believe New Picnic Time now is one of my most played albums. Was hard to get into it but now that I love all 10 songs it's almost easy listening for me. I love every single sound and everything about how David sings no matter how weird he does it. The synthesizer and guitar are also very well used together. It even entered my all time top 10 post-punk albums list on sputnikmusic and there's no end in sight! |
| PIG Praise The Lard |
A wonderful album perfect for spring (like Revolting Cocks - Beers Steers & Queers for example).
You can clearly hear the influences of J. G. Thirlwell (Foetus), especially the lyrics but also
the sound. I really like the clever lyrics here and the song structures.
It doesn't matter who does what better, just stop comparing you idiots and just enjoy the albums
for what they are or you will end up only liking maybe 50-60 albums instead of 900 albums like me. |

| Radian Chimeric |
| Radian Juxtaposition |
| Radian On Dark Silent Off |
Like all the releases before this album Radian once more proved they're worthy to be one of my top
6 all time favourite bands. Their mix of post-rock & IDM is amazing and all 48 songs I have of
them so far are great.
I like that they have their own unique way of how they make music. It's great to get lost into
their albums. |

| a very fine futurepop album, this time with a vocal version of Avalost, which's much better than the instrumental one.rI know what futurepop is about, too many people on this site always want highly emotional music, this is NOT what futurepop (or EBM, industrial etc) is about.rMany futurepop albums are perfect for autumn, some good for spring and summer.rI like the atmosphere in songs like Point Break, Avalost, Smoke and Travelling.

This album deserves a rating above 4. Kinder Des Alls is a great song, and then Galactic

earth (far above the ISS).
It's a wonderful place where you can buy everything you ever dreamed of.rWith glowing yellow tiles

| Tor Lundvall The Shipyard |
Really a wonderful album. Lovely atmosphere. Sometimes rainy sometimes foggy but never sunny.
I really like his other album "Sleeping And Hiding" where he sings on all the songs (but without
choruses thankfully, the lyrics fit nicely) but albums like The Shipyard are nice places / worlds
to dive into and get lost in them.
Next to the 9 songs from this album I also found 2 bonus songs which are excellent as well,
especially "The Shipyard In Winter" is adorable
(they're on his bandcamp for example).
It's always great when you can visit all kinds of places and worlds without leaving your room. |

For me this is a perfect album for december and when I'm playing Sonic 3 with the Sega emulator.
Then I can listen to all 9 songs in a row and they're all enjoyable to me. Still this is a very
strange album for a band like Wire. But I'm thankful that I discovered it years ago. They're all
remixes of one song and it's a positive surprise that no song sounds like the other.
Also people who give a bad rating just don't have imagination, that's what you need when you
listen to this album. |
| Worrytrain Worrytrain |
What an excellent ambient album, it's great to get lost into it, especially songs 2, 3, 4 (look in
the tracklist to see which ones I mean) have a great atmosphere that takes me far away from this
world into another. Songs 8 and 9 also belong to my favourites. I like all 10 songs, even the few
weaker ones are enjoyable. It's mostly beatless ambient with a cold, sometimes droney sound. It is
a real "hidden" gem that not many know about, and I listen to it very regularly.
Favourite songs:
1. Today I Saw An Angel..Today I Saw A Satellite
2. Cold Sleepwarm Sound
3. London's Fog & Burning / Flying High On Wounded Wings
5. Heaven's Ice Spread Downward / Goodbye Northern Lights
7. Via Madoline Ralley
8. Waking Up In The Marsh
9. Terminal Sunlight / Downism |
| Wynardtage Praise The Fallen |
| Wynardtage A Flicker Of Hope |
A really underrated album by Wyn. Deserves a 4.0 from me because there are many enjoyable songs on
it. A Flicker Of Hope, White Frost, We Can Carry A Lot and the haunting Closer are up there with
his best songs he ever did.
Some harsh electro artists will always play an important role in my music world, for example
Fractured, Wynardtage, earlier Aesthetic Perfection, IWR, Some X-Fusion, Hocico, Die Sektor, ESC
(Eden Synthetic Corps), First 3 Heimataerde albums and Velvet Acid Christ, also Tactical Sekt,
Life Cried, Asphyxia, Distatix, Unter Null, Distorted Memory, Dawn Of Ashes, Suicide Commando,
Deadjump
Favourite songs on this album:
1. White Frost / Closer
3. We Can Carry A Lot / A Flicker Of Hope
5. Solitude
6. The Fall (feat. Unter Null)
7. Deep Red (feat. Damian Dior) / Taste This Rush
9. Blindfold (feat. Mel) / Alive / Slow The Tide
No Hurricane Age because that song was always on Praise The Fallen album (2007) but it's a great
song there. |

I'm thankful this album proved as a grower, now I really like 9 or maybe 10 songs on it (and maybe
the last
song Fatal Conclusion, but it's more like an outro).
And most songs with vocals only have 2 choruses, only the song "Rape" is a bit too repetitive,
they could have cut off a minute and the song would be absolutely fine.
I like the dark and hopeless atmosphere, I like it a bit more than the album
The Enemy.
I wanted to like this album because it is released in 2007 and that was a great year for futurepop
and dark electro / aggrotech. From 2008 on there were less and less great albums coming out of
those 2 genres (with some exceptions). |
| Aesthesys Alignments |
| Aesthesys Achromata |
| Aghast View Phaseknox |
| Agitation Free Malesch |
| Agitation Free 2nd |
| Agonoize Sieben |
Very good effort, didn't expect it to be honest. Assimilation Chapter One 3 years ago (2004) was a
big flop in my music world. Crappy songwriting, only few songs avoiding the 3rd chorus, lackluster
songs everywhere. On "Sieben" it's different. From song 2 to 11 there are 10 songs (!) with only 2
choruses.
Also the sound and production is very good. Typical autumnal atmosphere as well.
Lyrics sometimes well...if you are german like me and know what they sing about they can be a bit
off putting.
Of course you don't expect well thought out or clever lyrics from a typical aggrotech band now do
you?
What was it in 2007 that so many futurepop & dark electro / aggrotech artists released great
albums? It's as if they knew that their scene was beginning to die and had to put out just one
more good album. From 2008 on there were still very good albums of both genres, but they got fewer
with every year. 2007 was the last very good year for futurepop & dark electro / aggrotech. |

A very crazy and abstract album, with many very juicy sounds. This album demands multiple listens

The most songs have clever song structures, take Shipwreck for example, when you expect the 2nd chorus to come, the song just goes somewhere else for a whole minute before the 2nd chorus appears. Or Hardware Requiem, it builds and builds, gets really tense until the chorus finally appears.rAnd of course the 25 minute Cryotank Expansion, I love the icy cold ambient sounds, it never gets boring to me. |

This album really has some great songs on it that takes me back to autumn 2007 (An Endless Case,
Consuming Hearts, In Affect, Strip The Light, Pure Addiction and Pieces). I loved to listen to
them (and other futurepop & dark electro albums) when I got home after 4pm when it already got
dark outside. I love that melancholic feeling.

An obscure band and I'm thankful I have both albums. The songs are surprisingly well structured
for a band of this genre (electro-industrial rock).
I know many obscure bands and albums and it's like a miracle to me that I found them and still
love them after 10 or more years. Means it is irrelevant how popular they are out there, when in
my music world they're important.

| Diary of Dreams MenschFeind |
| Die Sektor Applied Structure In A Void |
| My first album of them. Had to check it out because I love the album cover. I like how every song has many small little details and sounds, sometimes even glitch influenced. In some of the more introverted sounding songs the atmosphere can be even dreamy and melancholic. Finally another great harsh electro album (my last one, Maldire by Velvet Acid Christ is an almost-classic to me). |

Favourite songs: Pale (Above The Arctic Circle Version), even better than the original song from
their 1st album. Dreamy, very atmospheric, nicely structured. Also great are most of the original
songs on this EP, especially Exploitation, Drowned, World Of Ice, and also Handoutdrugs has many
fine moments.
Only song I'm having problems with is The Rich Are All Perverted.
There are some nice remixes on this as well. |

| Emancipator Safe In The Steep Cliffs |
I am glad I dug this album out after years. Most songs have an ethereal feeling, a nice album to
draw something while sitting next to a window, or to listen to while daydreaming. It's an album
that might need multiple listens so that one song after another can unfold itself.
That other user calling this elevator music just has no imagination left in him. I love to let my
imagination run wild while listening to atmospheric electronic albums.r |

| ESC (Eden Synthetic Corps) Eight Thousand Square Feet |
This album is on a similar high level as Enhancer. Almost every song enjoyable. Most songs are
well structured, most only 2 choruses. The song with X-Fusion is really good, only disappointment
is the song with [:SITD:]. Too predictable and lazy songwriting. [:SITD:] can do much better with
their own albums.
It can be frustrating sometimes when you look for good dark electro / aggrotech albums, but after
so many years I have amassed many very good albums from this genre.
With futurepop it's a bit easier, because there are bands who don't just make music for clubs but
also songs that are more introspective. f-pop is also more melodic which means they don't have to
rely on choruses that much. |

| Hocico Scars |
I still haven't heard a Hocico song yet that is better than the song Scars and maybe Not Like You
(apestas version). Both are awesome and I like to remember summer 2006 when I discovered it.
edit: But the albums Memorias Atras and Wrack And Ruin really did grow on me, most songs on both
are amazing. They almost always avoid the 3rd chorus, means the songs often have very good song
structures. |
| Hocico Wrack and Ruin |
| A nice album which has an interesting atmosphere. The genre they're in is usually aggressive and trying to be dark, but somehow the whole album has a slightly dreamy feeling as well. It's different from Memorias Atras for example which's also amazing but is less atmospheric in my opinion.rI will always have a heart for genres like harsh electro, electro-industrial and futurepop. There are times when I need this kind of music. |

Much less atmosphere than Love Kills (icy, frosty masterpiece) and Exile Paradise (warm, fruity
like a passion fruit and nice sounds in the background).
edit: But this album did finally grow after I gave it another chance. Nice atmospheres as always
with this band.

Another psybient & psydub gem I checked out today morning at work after Kick Bong - Flower Power.
Both are amazing, once more I'm happy that there are still countless great psybient albums I
didn't know yet.
The album songs of both albums are considerably shorter than on the average psybient album but
they're dynamic, don't need too much time to develop or to start and once again it's a great
adventure to listen to them.
In psybient music it is irrelevant to me how original or innovative an album is, many artists can
sound similar yet they still all sound different, it's a different adventure every time I discover
another album of this genre and
it always helps me feel more positive. |

| Just another very nice 90's goth album. I love the darkwave feeling on it, it's still one of my favourite genres although most of the great darkwave bands are from germany and other european countries.rSongs like Spider And The Fly, Your Best Nightmare, The Black Cat and Sacrifice are just wonderful. |
| Loscil Submers |
| Great underwater ambient. Other underwater ambient album I know is "World Of Sleepers" by Carbon Based Lifeforms but "Submers" is a little bit darker and dark blue, not light blue and psychedelic like WoS. Great atmospheres. |

| Novembers Doom To Welcome the Fade |
| Definitely much better than the overrated Novella Reservoir, which has too many 3 chorus songs which gets old and tired very quickly. To Welcome The Fade has only Not The Strong but from the 2nd song on it becomes much better. |
| Numb Death on the Installment Plan |
| Nurzery (Rhymes) Thorns |
| Oneohtrix Point Never Returnal |
Why should I care about when someone says this album doesn't sound original or Daniel uses too
many influences like sounds of Klaus Schulze for example, or that it sounds too similar to other
artists. Listening to this album again right now and after many years it's still as great as after
the first listen. Nice colours everywhere, great atmosphere to get lost in.
I enjoy it for what it is, a very good atmospheric electronic album. People should stop caring
about what sounds unoriginal and just enjoy the music and using their imagination to it. |

| Ozric Tentacles The Yumyum Tree |
The Ozrics over the years became my second most favourite band (after And Also The Trees and
before Diorama, Eyeless In Gaza, Radian, Gong, The Chameleons, Shpongle etc.).
From 1988 to 2000 I found 11 amazing albums. Tried many albums from after 2000 but they're
frustrating to listen to because the magic seems to be gone.
Then I checked out The Yum Yum Tree days ago. Maybe THIS is the 12th great album of the Ozrics I
was looking for for years. The songs have more imagination, nice sounds and atmosphere. |
| Ozric Tentacles Curious Corn |
| Ozric Tentacles Pungent Effulgent |
@GhandhiLion: What I don't like is that you and other people just can't simply enjoy certain songs
and albums for what they are, I wish you would stop comparing bands and just enjoy the music. When
someone likes / loves a band / album it shouldn't matter how original and influential a band was.
Pungent Effulgent is another gem and the 1988-2000 Ozrics era was and is incredible, they were
almost invincible back then. How great it is to get lost in space and in their music. |

24 are so dreamy, perfect for watching the stars and moon at night, also perfect for cold autumn
days.
Must be great when you have to get up after 6am, but you wake up at 1am deciding to enjoy the look
out of the window while listening to this album. |
| Plaid Rest Proof Clockwork |
| Pneumatic Detach [vis·cer·a] |
Very good industrial noise album. More experimental than for example SAM, Soman, Xotox, Noisuf-X
etc. Also with some breakcore influences and some complex rhythm sections not far from idm &
glitch.
I love the album cover it fits nicely with the meaty, industrial sounds on the album. Next to
S.K.E.T. - Baikonur this is a rhythmic noise album I love to come back to from time to time (even
if I also like SAM, Soman and Xotox).

| Re:Legion 13 Seconds |
I didn't know or expect this band was already on here. Was preparing to add them to the database.
Today I finally dug out this album after more than 10 years. Bought it in 2007 but only listened
to few songs then. Another nice futurepop album with almost all songs avoiding the standard 3
chorus routine. |
| Real Life Heartland |
| Revolting Cocks Beers, Steers + Queers |
| Robert Lippok Redsuperstructure |
| Rotersand 1023 |
This album did grow on me years after release. Now I understand it much better. Welcome To Goodbye
is untouchable and still one of the best futurepop albums of all time but I like how they
experiment on 1023. There's an acoustic guitar, trip-hop and ambient influences, the songs are
often slower but I like how they unfold. Songs like I Am With You have nice song structures, after
the 2nd chorus the song takes off and never returns, I love that kind of creativity. |

I wish there is a review of this album, it's almost unknown compared to their first 3 albums. One
of my all time favourite post-punk bands. Years ago I even had to add this album because it wasn't
on sputnikmusic.
This album is perfect for early september days when it still can be sunny and warm but you realize
summer will not stay too long. It's a very easy album, easy to like and get lost into it. |
| Saltillo Monocyte |
| Saltillo Ganglion |
| SAM SYNTHETIC ADRENALINE MUSIC |
Still very nice industrial-techno, nice mix of rhythmic noise and hardstyle (not normally my genre
but it sounds great here), also nice atmospheres. And the album cover fits nice.

The other user clearly has bad ears. There are songs I like like Tiny Snail, Wut and The Chamber.
Edit:
I'm glad I dug this album out again after years, Like the 3 mentioned songs I also really like
Tears In Rain, Lost Alone, Fire, Your Road and Two Faces. Well none of the songs on the album is
bad, they're all listenable, also: 8 of 12 songs only have 2 choruses, means it is a typical
futurepop album, I like how many albums of the genre have well structured songs. |

Discovered it today. Only knew Stalemate, listened to that years ago.
Terminal is a nice hybrid of industrial, rock and hip-hop, many songs are nicely crafted and often
avoid normal 3 chorus routines.
I also like how the vocals sound, reminds me of good old us-coldwave days.
Discovered some very nice industrial albums lately, this one here and Flesh Field - Strain. |
| Solar Fields Reflective Frequencies |
| Solitary Experiments Mind Over Matter |
Atmosphere-wise it's one of the best albums with november atmosphere and one of the best of
futurepop & modern EBM. Not really perfect as an album but there are many great songs that stand
on their own and are beautiful.

Comsat Angels songs, are up there with the best on Sleep No More (a post-punk classic). Birdman,
Now I Know and Zinger are also very good, others are decent to average. Still a nice post-punk
album, on a good 34th rank in my post-punk albums list.
Once more Andy Peake shows why he is one of my personal keyboard heroes of post-punk (next to
others like Dave Formula of Magazine). |

It's always a great feeling when I just discovered another nice IDM album from an artist I didn't
know until then.
Atmosphere-wise it's another futuristic subway station IDM album, like for example Subheim -
Approach, Integral - Rise, Totakeke - The Things That Disappear... and Architect - Consume Adapt
Create, I adore those.
This one by Tonikom was quite easy to get into and it's a journey of slightly over 1 hour.
Just as with those 4 mentioned albums there is not a single song on it I don't like or that I
would usually skip. I love coming back to IDM albums from time to time just to get sucked into its
atmosphere and leave reality for hours. |
