5.0 out of 5 stars Rock/electronic mix with muscle, June 27, 2000

I first heard about GLU a couple of years ago when this album came out. The first time I heard it I was astounded. The music is a perfectly blended combination of Depeche Mode on 'roids, electronic beats and noises, and industrial guitar riffing. The Intro builds up and segues into "Rearranged," a powerful anthem that turns up the intensity. "The Rush is Loud" amd "Dress Rehearsal For Reproduction" follow in much the same vein as "Rearranged" with loud, powerful choruses. "Medicated to the One I Love" is a little too long, but it works for the first 5 minutes and the last 3 minutes. This album will appeal to fans of guitar-based rock and electronic music along the lines of Depeche Mode, KMFDM, Nine Inch Nails, Stabbing Westward, and Gravity Kills. Recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Upgraded Depeche Mode?, October 18, 1999

this album shocked me. i've never heard about this band before i found their song on a [Tribute to Depeche Mode] album - and it was the best song on the album (except Smashing Pumpkins of course!!!) whole album is the same. sounds-rarities, electronic and live instruments fusion. vocals are not the best although. last three songs reminded me Depeche Mode melodies and atmosphere but it was MUCH MORE better and non-pop than old mainstreamful DM. progressive electronic/ex-grunge people should buy this.

4.0 out of 5 stars sweet, September 20, 1999

This review is from: Life in the So-Called Space Age (Audio CD)

this CD is definately quality, if not quite as good as empty. the 2 are hard to compare though, life in the so-called space age is almost a different style for them. i definately recommend this CD, its the best cd i've ever heard if i'm buzzing from random things. as for the guy who said "listen to STP or Metallica," you definately won't like this CD if u listen to just one set type of music. but if u have an appreciation for different types and a good taste of what's crap and not then you'll really like this CD, its different, very good. i like the guy's analogy to a swim on a breezy day; i'd agree. like others i'd give it 5 stars except there's a 20 minute segment at the end that's no fun to listen to. the other songs are 5-star quality tho
