5.0 out of 5 stars Cetu Javu's Southern Lands is an Extremely Worthy Effort, February 4, 2005
This review is from: Southern Lands (Audio CD)
Cetu Javu was a short-lived German New Wave band that belonged in the 1980s more than the grunge-influenced early 1990s. This album, chock full of listenable tunes is catchy and remarkably devoid of duds. Chart hit Situations is present. However, you'll be disappointed by the album track of Have in Mind, as it is NOT the version that charted in US clubs. That was Have In Mind (Kalimba Mix), which is sold as a CD single (or downloaded for free, of course). I can't say enough about Cetu Javu's talent, and this was the strongest of their two albums. Even Words Without Thoughts, Southern Lands and China Girl are extremely synthy, catchy and are sure to be enjoyed by those who have a penchant for Kraftwerk, Camouflage and Alphaville. I make you this promise: if you're an 80's New Wave fan, you WILL find "Situations" catchy. I guarantee it. It's that memorable a song. It ruled the US Dance Charts for weeks, which is not easy for a tune intended as synth rather than club music. One parting shot: Cetu Javu's songs are about mature topics, such as environmental destruction (Southern Lands and Have in Mind), which is a throwback to OMD singing about nuclear energy and hydroelectric power on their chart hit "Electricity" from 1981.

5.0 out of 5 stars Old School New Wave Music, September 24, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Southern Lands (Audio CD)
This is classic old school new wave with music and voices like the 80's Depeche Mode and New Order styles. Cete Javu has more mid tempo music suitable for dancing and pure listening enjoyment alike. If you are a Depeche Mode or New Order fan, you just might like this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars synthpop classic, December 17, 2004
This review is from: Southern Lands (Audio CD)
1993? I bought this cd in 1989. It is one of my all-time favorite synthpop albums. Highlights include: "Have in Mind", "Situations", "Words Without Thoughts", and "Fight Without a Reason", although its all great. Check out their Spain only (I believe) second release..."Where is Where". Not as good as Southern Lands, but definately worth picking up, if you can find it that is.
