Before Love Kills!, I was only a casual fan of In Strict Confidence. There were a few songs scattered throughout their releases that would catch my attention, but nothing worth buying the entire album for. However, Love Kills! marks somewhat of a departure from their previous sound. Each song now possesses more structure and steady pace, making for an all around listenable album. If I had to compare ISC to more popular bands in the industrial/EBM genre, I would have to say they now sound like a combination of Evil's Toy (for the angels theme, and the high bpm nature of their feature songs) and :wumpscut: (for some of the more abstract tracks). There are a couple of bridge tracks that are bland, but the feature songs such as The Truth Inside Of Me and Kiss Your Shadow are pure excellence. I would also like to add that the cover booklet for this CD is one of the most well designed I've ever seen. With the translucent green tint to every photograph and light overlay paper, it communicates the dark, gothic theme perfectly. If you are a fan of bands like Evil's Toy, :wumpscut:, and Abscess, you will probably be pleased with ISC's evolved sound. Love Kills! deserves a place in your industrial music collection.

I don't know why but I love ISC! I think they sound quite original as far as this style of music goes. My favourite tracks on this album are "Heaven Is The Place To Be', "Kiss your Shadow", and "The Setting Of The Sun". This is not the best ISC album but it is a good one and I think it mat be getting close to be Out Of Print. I know that Metropolis doesn't current distribute this album so if your allready a fan than you should get it while you can. If your new to ISC you may want to start with one of thier better albums such as "Holy" or "Mistrust The Angels". Great Electronic-Industrial music!!!

Love this album! This is a superb example of industrial music at the time that it was released, and continues to be a favorite. The tunes are simply classic. It is soaring electronica and crunching industrial at the same time, an awesome combination. I also agree with another reviewer. If you like Frontline Assembly, Imperative Reaction, Funker Vogt, or VNV Nation, you will likely love this album too.

I like this CD but I don't love it. My favorite ISC album is "Holy" and than "Mistrust The Angels". The music on this album is electronic darkwave and aggro-industrial dance. For fans of DISMANTLED, FRONTLINE ASSEMBLY, and IMPERATIVE REACTION.

Lame name for an industrial band, but....decent music. Awesome album art and interresting sleeve design. There are a few great tracks on this CD but this is probably my least favorite album by ISC. If your new to ISC I suggest that you start anywhere else but here. Besides this album is an import and is way too expensive if you ask me.
