This review is from: Erinnerung (Audio CD)

Ever since I have heard the live version of "Blue Room", I have been on a Kirlian Camera kick. ERINNERUNG is my latest Kirlian Camera album I had bought not long ago. I must confess I didn't take to ERINNERUNG like I did with PICTURES FROM ETERNITY. I had to listen to the album a half dozen times for the music to grow on me. The music wasn't as melodic as PICTURES FROM ETERNITY. Then there were the repetitive beats like on "Erinnerung-v.1". I felt like a jackhammer was pounding incessantly into my head. The same can be said for the second version of "Erinnerung". Both versions of the song is dull and repetitive.Thankfully the annoying beats is quickly made up by songs like "Schliesse Mie Die Augen Beide", "Days of Laura Zero", and "Sea of Memory". I like the quirky melodies in "the 1st Corridor". I particularly enjoyed Emilia Lo Jacono's vocals on "Schliesse Mie Die Augen Deide", one of my personal favorite tracks on the album. Another great song on the album is the instrumental "Days of Laura Zero". I thought the classical melodies had a nice Parisian flair to them. My other personal favorite track is the acoustic ballad "Sea of Memory". Asides from the title track, I also did not care for "The 1st Corridor". I didn't particularly care for the melodies which was a bit weird and quirky for my tastes. While I don't think ERINNERUNG is bad, I also can't say that it is nearly as good as PICTURES FROM ETERNITY. Nevertheless I am glad to have expanded my Kirlian Camera exposure to more than one album.
