5.0 out of 5 stars This Album is Pure Genious, October 23, 2005

Quite possibly the most underrated album of all times.
Though electronic rock has somewhat died out (Gravity Kills, Stabbing Westward, GLU), this album will always be in heavy rotation in my collection.

This is NOT Industrial, so don't expect it to be. It is pure electronic based rock. The mix is perfect. If you listen you can hear how intricately the electronic music is mixed in with the standard rock guitar music.

I can't say enough good things about this album. I HIGHLY recommend it. I have owned this album since 1995!

RIP David Reilly

i bought this cd way back when i was 15 and now i'm 25 - wow. i just listened to it again the other day for the first time in a while and i still must say, they were true innovators. i always remember thinking that his voice sounded like layne staley at first, but i got used to it and liked it. the sounds that were made on this album via synthesizers and drum machines were unique for its time. and it was one of those i would get trashed and listen to. sounds good with a buzz. good beats w/ crisp & crunchy guitar riffs. the thing about GLU that made them standout from the other techno-metal bands of time was the song-writing. each song feels inspired, has heart and means something. they don't sound like they were just trying to make a party-record or something. they proved their ingenuity with 'life in the so-called space age' and i'm just sad they are no longer around. i hear their solo efforts are decent though and look forward to checking them out. I was fortunate enough to catch their live show a couple times in charlotte, NC which was a cool b/c they played w/ a live drummer along w/the synthesizers and drum machines and of course the guitars were killer - thanks 4 the muzik

God Lives Underwater's first full-length Album, EMPTY, is a must have for anyone who likes original music. Unlike Nine Inch Nails, the band sees themselves as a hard rock band, as opposed to an electronic/industrial one. Either way, this album is ear candy. Some of the best songs on this album are Still, All Wrong, No More Love, Empty, 23, & Tortoise. This isn't your standardized, corporate-rock album; David Reilly and Jeff Turzo chose to record the entire album at home (Richard Patrick for FILTER chose that method of recording also). EMPTY is a lot harder than their sophomore LP, Life In The So-Called Space Age, I definetly recommend it for anyone into alternative forms of rock, and band like NIN, Skinny Puppy, Ministry, Filter, etc. But if you like more typical rock (Nickelback, etc) you probably won't like this album. So listen with an open mind and an open heart because this album may soon become one of you most prized posessions. Check out their site at enjoyglu.com
