4.0 out of 5 stars Gothminister gets the point where Rammstein missed it, June 23, 2005

From my personal point of view this new release of the norwegian band Gothminister is not as good as their first one...but it still is quite good! Less electronic (less danceable then), a little bit less inspired than "Gothic Electronic Anthems", but worth to have it however. If you like bands like Rammstein and Rob Zombie, this cd won't disappoint you at all. As a matter of fact, if you got tired of Rammstein after their last two releases ("Mutter" and "Reise, Reise"), Gothminister is quite a good substitute.
The best track in this album is "Do you believe in monsters?", a hit in any gothic or metal/industrial club.
The first 3 tracks are quite ok (as well those co-mixed by Stefan Glaumann, who has already worked with Rammstein, Paradise Lost or Within Temptation), but the second part of the album becomes a little bit boring or uninspired, yet full of quality. I said before, the problem with this album is that the first one was more varied, more inspired and almost full of danceable tracks.
Anyway, a good cd, much better than those of many so-called industrial bands around.

This is one of the best industrial/electro-metal/gothic rock albums I have heard yet. The only problem with this CD would have to be the numerous 30 second sound clips that come after about every three tracks or so (I assume they were solely created to be filler material since they appear so often). Overall, though, very good and comes highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars nice, November 9, 2006

everybody have different tastes when talking about music, so i can't say that people is gonna like the cd in the same way as i do, industrial/goth is the kind of music that is very difficult to make it sound different to another bands, that's why people is gonna find gothminister pretty similar to bands like deathstars,unheilig,etc but still pretty good, excellent voice, good lyrics,etc
