5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the wait!, October 12, 2007

Chris Pohl has so many things going that it is a welcome thing he had time to relase another full length cd for Blutengel {Blood Angel in German}


The vampire coven feel is still pretty string here on this release. The female members in the group are more prevelant here than on past releases. A few of the songs forge into the electro/ ebm field...but most are pretty electronically gothic and at a slightly slower past. The harmonies are richer than ever...and some of the songs will hook in your mind.

I purchased the special edition not offered here on Amazon yet. It is a beautiful tin box with Chris Pohl's picture on the front. It opens to 2 cd's...one the original release, and the second is 7 remixes, b-sides, live versions. There are 2 booklets, one for the original cd, and the other for the box set. There is a nice sticker, and a portrait card, plus a booklet of other releases available.

This release in more in tune with Angel Dust

In two years, Blutengel has quickly rose to the top of my favorite goth/industrial bands. The combination of male and female vocals set to infectious pop melodies and crisp synthesized beats has given me immense joy. Chris Pohl and company recently released their latest album LABYRINTH. This is the first album featuring new member Ulrike Goldmann. LABYRINTH did not fail to disappoint me. The music is filled with addictively catchy pop hooks and throbbing dance beats that is guaranteed to get anyone on to the dancefloor. Ulrike is a great addition to the band. She sings lead vocals on quite a few songs through out the album, some of my favorite songs on the album includes her on lead vocals. Of course Constance Rudert's presence can be heard on hte album like on "Singing Dead Men" and "Sunrise". Chris sounds great as ever. As usual, his lyrics are filled with vampire-related themes. There were a couple of songs that were only so-so to me but for the most part I love LABYRINTH. I really love how much more of a prominent role female vocals have on the album than on past albums. Great album.

5.0 out of 5 stars I can never bring her back to life again., February 21, 2009

I think this album is well worth checking out!! I had been a long term Blutengel fan since the release of Child of Glass in '99. This album went far beyond my expectations. I can listen to the entire album and not skip a song. The lyrics and music are much more thought out then previous releases and I always have loved their lyrics. Still has the dark vampiric themes crossed over with a romantic metamorphosis as well as a social metomorphosis in "Lucifer". You do not have to be Gothic to enjoy this one! Any fan of Darkwave, EBM, Industrial, Electro could enjoy this. Chris, Constance and Ulrike all have beautiful voices. I would give this one 7 stars out of five!!!!!!!!!
