When a band calls their album „Synthesizer Tanzmusik“ (=synthesizer dance music), then we would probably expect the finished product to contain that which is advertised … and, well… we are happy to be able to inform you that f.o.d. absolutely deliver the goods! The Eighties-reminiscent title track that subtly combines elements from both the German New Wave and groups like And One with the club sounds of today and some tongue-in-cheek self-reflexive lyrics effectively paves the path for what is to come: an array of intelligent, catchy and club-compatible songs. The German trio displays a masterful hand for gloomy Synth Pop ballads (“Dreams”, “Seconds of Love”), epic dark club tracks (“Archangel’s Battlefield”) that would not seem out of place on a Blutengel-album, as well as up tempo dance floor burners (“Run Away”).
