I agree...Bland , boring, in fact: very bland and very boring, even Model, for which I hoped to be more Kraftwerk-like. Don't get me wrong. I'm biggest TD fan forever, I listen TD from my age of 12 and now I have 41. I enjoy listen EVERY other TD albums anytime. This is first TD album I can't stand. I think EF made big mistake, for non letting his son and Ulrich Schnauss to lead the band in modern electronic direction.Six By Nine wrote:Got to disagree with most people here on this release I'm afraid.
In my opinion a really dull and inspid selection of songs performed in the blandest possible fashion.
....it's so bland and boring it's impossible to get that worked up about.
I respect EF's wish to have some fun and do something different, but why put it out under the TD moniker and tarnish the name. would have been better in my opinion to do it under a pseudonym like the REM members did with the Hindu Love Gods.
OK I didn't know that you take this album as a joke. I agree with poster above - they should use pseudonym. This is just my personal opinion about album, no offense.ant wrote: Can't believe that some are taking this album so seriously but everyone is entitled to their opinion. It was just done as a bit of fun and a break from the more serious side of TD music and I think it is great. Edgar and co have done a fine job, IMHO, and I personally look forward to more covers in the future. I just hope the 'negative' reviews don't put them off doing Chapter 2 because I am really looking forward to it. Keep 'em coming TD and Edgar, you did not make a mistake doing this - it was inspired, fun and really enjoyable.
Classical, hmm don't we are waiting for that. What I am still waiting for after all these years, is an album with piano variations on their songs. I still love for instance the Pergamon part. For me, one of the highlights.ant wrote: I did not say I thought it was a joke. I said it was fun and that is totally different. As for TD doing covers of 'classical' pieces - bring it on. In the early days I always thought that TD's music was the modern electronic version of classical music due to the structure and length of their pieces, so I think they would do a fine job of that.
