5.0 out of 5 stars This band just gets better and better..., August 15, 2002

...with each successive album. On this, their second disk, Mesh continues to travel the darker strata. This band consistantly stikes resonant chords of lust, rage, angst and loneliness.

Before I'd even heard their work, I'd read a brief description of their sound as Depeche Mode meets NIN. In hindsight, i'd say more the former than the latter but really, Mesh has carved out their own distinct sound.

Like so many darkwave/synthpop bands out there it's a shame that
this music can't be found on the radio or on MTV. Instead we're treated to a neverending stream of pap. Perhaps it's for the better, as it is Mesh and the rest (the Nine, Iris, Blind Passengers, Beborn Beton, Static Icon, etc) remain a treasured secret worth sharing.

Favorite tracks: 'Confined', 'I don't think they know', and 'Something wrong'.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Shattering!, November 30, 1999

This review is from: In This Place Forever (Audio CD)

This is Mesh's second release and in it they explore more fully what they only hinted at on their first release, "Fragile." This album is nothing less than a landmark album of edgy, straight-from-the-heart, industrial-synthpop. The feeling Mesh expresses throughout is so real, so translucent, and so honest, that it is hard not to be moved by the whole experience the is "ITPF." There are times when the music becomes harsh and gritty-sounding. Then there are the moments when beautiful melodies stream in and change the whole landscape of the music. All of this is dependent to the emotions and passions currently being dealt out in each individual song. Also, it would be a shame not to mention the poigniant, yet gorgeous, lyrics which permeate everything. They put most bands to shame in this area of writing. All-in-all, this is one release that is important, both musically and emotionally. Get it.

5.0 out of 5 stars MESH in this place forever!, January 20, 2003

This review is from: In This Place Forever (Audio CD)

In the last two years of the 80's I was moved by a hardly known vocal talent that of Dean Russell. As the lead singer for MOEV he made the then crossover industrial sound very emotional and aesthetic without being "overly" harsh. It was probably my last favorite 80's act. MESH not related in any way had that aesthetic for the 90's and now the new millennium and have made amazing crossover electro. This was the first album I listened to and was immediately moved by the structure of the piece (I consider each of their albums a themed piece of work). This is one intelligent and very well crafted album. Plan to be taken on an emotive and enjoyable journey. Just EXCELLENT.
