Новый альбом синтезированных futureпоперов производит неплохое впечатление. Альбом в отличие от ранних работ группы более лиричен и красив. Похожесть на группы VNV Nation и Assemblage 23 заметно и в этой работе. Но, у группы уже начинает появляться своё постоянное музыкальное лицо. Диск можно рекомендовать всех поклонникам мягкого futurepopa.
От издатетеля:
Dutch Electro band Angels and Agony and their mastermind and singer Reinier Kahle have worked for almost three years on a follow-up to their highly praised album “Avatar". Well worth the wait, “Unison” delivers from the first note to the last with all 13 tracks carrying the groups distinctive and trademark sound, a refreshing perfection of their own unique style. The songs combine the catchy melodies of Synth and Future Pop with the heavy hitting impact of EBM and some groovy dance elements, while carefully avoiding all of the usual Trance-clichés. But what makes Angels and Agony really stand out from the crowd is an emotional depth that is reflected through the use of subtle melancholy intertwined with dark and melodic musical textures. Fittingly, the lyrics are also deep reflections on emotions and spirituality. "Unison" is the definition of intelligent club music with strong hooks and real feelings. Produced by John Fryer ( Depeche Mode, HIM, Nine Inch Nails )
