This is a great album from some of the grand daddies of industrial music, Die Krupps. Not quite as good as their previous effort, Odyssey of the Mind, but still an adrenaline-pumping thrashfest. There's a lot more emphasis on guitars, almost to the point of sounding like a speed metal band, which works beautifully on most songs, but just flops on a few. The guitar emphasis is about the only thing negative about the album, as some songs tend to sound a bit generic. However, the rest of the tracks totally make up for the few weak ones. Stand-outs include Moving Beyond, Black Beauty White Heat, (A New) Society Treaty, the blazingly fast 30 Seconds, and the severely f'ed up Fire. All in all, an excellent album. A must for any Krupps fan, or any industrial music fan.

In this album they paly industrial metal . The guitars are so heavy - It reminds me Pantera.There is a lot of rhythm in this album something you are gonna like it.If you like metal you will like this album. In comparison to their other albums this with II are their best.

With "Paradise Now", Die Krupps gets more agressive and constructive : heavy metal guitars, shouting voices and beating electronic sounds. With this album, DK becomes one of the most interesting crossover band.
