5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Album!, February 11, 2009

For trip-hop fans that enjoyed Massive Attack's Mezzanine album, you will enjoy this similarly inspired, yet highly progressive, album that slightly goes beyond the limitations of the genre. The production quality is flawless, the soundscapes are very imaginative with a blend of the organic and digital, and the vocals are haunting and sensual. I highly recommend this album. Be sure to check out the track entitled "Sweep", as it will be a song that sticks with you for a while.

As blown away as I was by this release, I was a bit disappointed with Blue Foundations newest release, Life of a Ghost. Aside from the familiar female vocals and quality production, there is very little that resembles the style of this album. I am very supportive of musicians exploring new musical territory, but unfortunately they seem to have abandoned musical innovation and inspired creativity for alt-pop convention. Their new material is still enjoyable, but much more forgettable, unfortunately. I hope they return to their musical roots and don't get a case of Top-40-itis.

it has many beautiful and haunting melodies without becoming cheesy, it is the perfect combination between pop and intellectual i think.

I'm not a big Twilight fan, or a big trip hop fan (yet), but I love this album! It is melancholy and catchy at the same time, with occasional bits of jazz and blues. The guy singer's rapping has thoughtful lyrics, but half the time his performance is not the best. However, most of the songs are this wonderful dreamy soprano female singer.

Things that I generally like: synthpop, goth, klezmer, bagpipes, opera, oldies. I guess I would say this album has catchy voices like oldies, synth like synthpop, with a lack of meaningless cheerfulness, which (the lack, I mean) is something that goth aspires to. No bagpipes, sadly, maybe they haven't reached Denmark yet.
