3.0 out of 5 stars Yello releases another Pristine Caliber Album with "Zebra"., December 21, 2000

By	"tremendous-pain" (Canada) - See all my reviews

Being a fan of pop/techno music all my life, Yello is the only group out of the crop that I never get tired of listening to. And "Zebra" is another example of their work that strays away from "mainstream pop". From the opening song "Suite 909" the acoustics Boris Blank uses are memorizing in every tune. He has a unique talent for succussfully mixing jazz & techno (as well as other genres) together as demonstrated in the the songs "S.A.X.", & "How, How". "Move, Dance, Be Born" is the highlight of the album. While techno has become generic in today's music era, Blank's music always bursts with orginality. "Night Train", "Tremendous Pain" and "Fat Cry" are the only tracks I found were weak. I can't seem to follow Deiter Meier's cryptic messages in his music. I'm more leniant to Blank's fasinating acoustics. Still, I strongly recommend this album for any Yello fan to add to his/her collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Masters of Electronic do their spin on House Music, July 16, 2000

By	S P Brady (Rehoboth Beach, DE United States) - See all my reviews

This album came at a time when techno-house was being force fed to me. I bought this album simply because it was the new Yello album and found an arsenal of superior tunes to unleash on the tribal ravers. What is so refreshing is that Yello left their weird tendencies behind to make a masterful clever cool grove sound.

5.0 out of 5 stars Yello goes techno!, August 12, 2000

After acquiring all of Yello's '80's albums that are readily available in the US, I got "Zebra" for Christmas 1995. My ears were freaking out! I couldn't believe how drastically different this album sounds compared to what you hear on "Essential" and everything else Yello has done in the past. But "Zebra" proves that when the musical times changed, so did Yello. Don't you just want to get up and shake your booty with "Move, Dance, Be Born" or "Do It" or even "S.A.X."?
